The entire theme of this six-episode series was about choices and how to make a bad one every time. Betray your mate by having an affair? No problem. Work for drug dealers instead of going to the cops? Absolutely. Fall for a violent, dangerous prisoner while working as a guard? Bingo.
The welter of scenarios just wasn't real as were the decisions taken. Added to this was a portrayal of prison life where drug barons rule and the screws and governors let them that I doubt exists in reality in Denmark. It seemed more like an American prison with clearly racially-differentiated gangs.
I watched till the end but there was no real tension engendered. I wasn't dying to get to the next episode to find out what would happen next.
There is scope for a further season. I'll watch it if it happens but in the hopes that it's better than this one.
