Das Boot S3
“While the big explosions are taking place out at sea, a good slice of this series’ drama takes place back on dry land, where it soon becomes clear the situation can rapidly turn just as deadly.” That of season 1 of Das Boot. Now, season 3 is here, and we’re nearing the tail end of the war. We can guarantee plenty of drama is yet to unfold.

Lost Luggage
Soon after the March 2016 attack on Brussels Airport, a police officer must return the personal belongings left behind. Creator Tiny Bertels was inspired by the real-life woman in charge of this task. Reading about her, she “was instantly gripped. Her stories deal with comfort, powerlessness, solidarity.”
While Samira shows great care in her job, she begins to teeter more each time she meets a victim, not ready to face her own PTSD. Touted as “a bittersweet story about finding solidarity, love and hope, even in the most difficult moments”, this Dutch-language Belgian drama stars indie rock star Lara Chedraoui as Samira.
Paraiso S2
From Spain, this drama series’ protagonists are also teenagers – Alvaro, Javi and Quino – who take on their own investigation into the disappearance of three of their friends, including Javi’s sister, who go missing after a night out. With horror and supernatural elements, “a beautifully filmed mix of adventure, genuinely creepy ghost story and nostalgia”. We cannot wait to see what season 2 has in store.

Don’t Leave Me
The heinous murder of a child takes investigator Elena and her son back to Venice after decades away. The case reunites Elena with old flame, Daniele. The pair work tirelessly to find the killer, while their personal lives entwine: Daniele is married to Elena’s best friend. The writers’ CVs include Gomorrah, The Newsroom and Narcos so we know we’re in good hands. The Venetian setting is also a major drawcard.
Too Close
Starring Emily Watson and Denise Gough, Too Close is based on the novel of the same name. (It was adapted for television by the novel’s author, Clara Salaman, who published it under the pseudonym, Natalie Daniels.)
Watson plays Dr Emma Robertson, a forensic psychologist tasked with analysing Connie Mortensen, accused of attempted murder of her own and her neighbour’s child. Should Connie be in jail or in a psych facility? As the women talk, Mortensen gives as good as she gets, and as much as their sessions can be combative, they also find common ground. The series was nominated for two BAFTA awards, with the two leads keeping us hooked in for the three-parter.
Too Close premieres exclusively in Australia on SBS and . Episodes air weekly. Watch episode 1 now:
Helsinki Crimes
Based on Matti Yrjänä Joensuu’s bestselling novels, this eight-part Finnish drama centres on Detective Timo Harjunpää (Olli Rahkonen) – known for his honesty and empathy for victims, as well as criminals – and his partner Onerva Nykanen (Olga Temonen). Under the full bright sky of summertime, the pair are kept busy investigating a wave of murders rocking the capital city. This is a stylish polished series, as we’ve come to expect from the Nordic region.
Nasdrovia S2
In what could be the most unusual sitcom you’ve seen, the premise of this Spanish comedy is that a pair of lawyers and good friends pivot into the restaurant business, opening a Russian eatery to indulge their passion for Russian culture. Trouble ensues when it becomes the favoured spot for the local Russian mafia. If you haven’t yet seen it, it’s an easy entertaining watch, with six half-hour episodes. We’re keen to see what season 2 brings us. Leonor Watling and Hugo Silva star as our lawyers.
