Der Usedom-Krimi/The Usedom Thriller / Baltic Crimes / Nordic Murders

 

Der Usedom-Krimi translates from German as The Usedom Thriller, Usedom being a bridge-attached island in the northeast corner of Germany on the Baltic Sea. Usedom is a popular summer tourist destination, the entry to the River Ord shipping lanes and ports, as well as being the home to the WWII German Peenemünde rocket research base. English-language media first called it "The Baltic Crimes" but now seem to have settled on "Nordic Murders" for some reason. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I think most people tend to associate the word "Nordic" with Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Lapland, etc. so I haven't a clue as to why they settled on that English-language name for it. Late last year an additional 3 films were aired but it seems they have yet been made available with English sub-titles. Each of these episodes are feature-length.

The Expert

 

 

The Expert was supposedly the first forensic science police procedural drama. It aired from mid-1968 to early 1971 and then returned 5 years later with 10 new episodes in 1976. These are the surviving episodes from a total of 62 produced.

The Expert 

These all contain various editing time stamps in the video. I laboriously applied filters to obscure them as much as possible and have posted a few before and after samples below. However, if those kind of things cause you great emotional distress it would be best to stay clear of this. Or purchase the DVD box-set. Oh, wait. You can't do that, can you?

If anyone prefers, I can put episodes 9 through 14 on with hard-coded subtitles as Tom Davis does often speak like he has a mouth full of food.

Whitstable Pearl

 

"With her son grown, single mum Pearl pursues her lifelong dream and starts a private detective agency, which she runs from her family restaurant in the coastal town of Whitstable. Drawn by her caring nature, locals soon flock to her with all kinds of cases. But when a friend dies suspiciously, Pearl finds herself in conflict with gruff new cop in town DCI Mike McGuire." 

And they say "you can't make this shit up", but apparently you can.

If I was dumb enough to let television influence my thinking, I might think that the little countries of Sweden and Denmark must be the most dangerous places on the map. Even more so than Chiraq, Illinois.
