  • j"ai adoré cette série

  • This is easily the best tv drama ever. I spend a whole weekend watching the complete 1st season because I just couldn't stop. The story takes you right in.

  • @mizziechannel :-) im from Danmark and thanx you for like our tv serie, then we can make more of this stuf :-)

  • If ever there was a film about unprofessionalism in the police force - this is it...

  • wait what you like this danish show? :O

    Danes wasnt' really so fond of it

  • until goosefleshes are under end of music....

  • i think Larry David would find this series pretty, pretty damn good!

  • I think the Killing US version is pretty good, but after I saw 8 episodes I realised I HAD TO WATCH original version...mmmh...WONDERFUL TV DRAMA, I think best TV series after Lost. And this theme of course now is my ring tone.

  • This TV show has just started in Japan. So beautiful!!!

  • How come the Danes can do something this good and where the hell did such wonderful actresses and actors come from. Bloody hell - King Alphred the Great drove them out of Wessex so why didn't he grab the actor ancestors when he chased the bastards into the sea and back to Danemark.

  • Just great!

  • danish version the defo best,only watched the first USA series. second series, the dutch with subtitles in english,soo much better.

  • Want a Theme tune ... as my ring tone !

  • Does anyone know if I can download the music or even buy a CD somehwere?

  • Best program I've ever watched. The American version makes me so angry though, cos of course its so much easier to remake the whole thing exactly the same than to just read the freakin' sub titles. Fools. Loved Season 2 and can't wait for the next one

  • Danish version is far better than the American . Watched 2 minutes of American then turned it off in disgust . Looking forward to series 3 ,Danish of course . The music crescendo was such a hit it blew my mind away .Love it! x

  • I totally agree! Forbrydelsen is just fantastic!Each and every detail of it is great! i don't even think of watchin american version! It's obvious that it won't stand even close to this one!!!!! For me Scandinavian movie industry is very strong!!!!!

  • I was hoping to find the DVD's in Danish with German subtitles but the German version is dubbed. 

  • excellent series had to give up on the US version not a patch on the original Danish one a genuine must-see

  • THE MURDERER DISLIKED THIS

  • The second season of The Killing starts on Saturday 19th November at 9pm on BBC 4!!!!

  • Which fucker disliked this?

  • Great show loved it! should i watch the us version too?

  • @JigglyRose

    I gave up on the yank version after episode 2, doesn't hold up to the original at all.

  • @krisb130 ah that wasn't actually the one I was trying to find :( but thanks anyway.

  • if anyone could help please do!! does anyone know the music that plays in the programme (both the danish and american version) when it's sad. particularly i think when the mum is looking at photographs of the dead girl, and when she is at the school looking at the tributes (talking about american version). the music is really sad but beautiful! it sounds like its played on an oboe or something?

  • @GeeBee868 - It's Pernille's theme. Go to: fransbak dot com. In the embedded video frame scroll down to: "15 Forbrydelsen 034" Click on it, it will start playing.

  • @krisb130 ah, but is it available for download? I'm desperate!

  • Does someone knows when is season II going to be aired on the BBC? I can not find decent english subtitles on the internet. I just finish seeing the first ep. of the second season but I'm not sure if I want to go ahead with the subtitles available.

  • Fantastic show - much better than the U.S. remake, and Bak's music is a key ingredient in creating the mystery and suspense running throughout the series. At the end of each episode this music would come in quietly under a montage of the main characters involvement in the plot, building to a crescendo at end credits. It made the hair stand up on my neck every time! Anyone know whether this is available as an audio download?

  • @TallyHo40 : You're so right about that! It made the hair stand up on my neck too, therefore I couldn't stop and finish seeing it in 2 days (10 ep x day).

  • @Amusement73 Series 2 of the Killing is due to be aired 'this autumn' on BBC4 TV. Not sure of the date yet - they're just teasing us with the trailer at present. Will get back to you when I find out exactly when. If you miss it on TV you should be able to catch up on the BBC's iplayer online.

  • @TallyHo40 : Thank you for you reply:) I cannot watch BBC, not even iplayer online, because I live in Italy. Anyway, problem solved because finally I found good subtitles and finished the second season as well. Great show but for me the first season is still the best.

  • @Amusement73 You can watch BBC iplayer if you live outside the UK, but you would need to download a UK remote proxy server first. There are some free ones out there on the net.

  • @m06een00 : Thank you so much! If you know any link could you be so kind to send it to me in a private message?

  • @Amusement73 Series 2 of the Killing is due to be aired 'this autumn' on BBC4 TV. Not sure of the date yet - they're just teasing us with the trailer at present. Will get back to you when I find out exactly when. If you miss it on TV you should be able to catch up on the BBC's iplayer online.

  • Proper tele'. 

  • Thanks for posting this. Best soundtrack to a tv programme. Twin Peaks fans are welcome to their outrage. This is the best! It's almost too good. Perfect.

  • Amazing soundtrack. I want her jumper! So cool.

  • I watched the US version and loved it. I'll watch this nearer the time the US season2 comes out.

  • I have this on my ipod and i love it every time.

    Series is Brilliant.

  • Thanks for this high quality video with Bak's haunting music-wonderful HD Quality!!! The series is brilliant,the script, direction,camera work, acting, music, - they all deserve an OSCAR!!! Watching it again for the second time. Looking forward to Killing 2. The USA remake is not worth watching at all !!!!!!!!Could stand watching only a few minutes of each episode-so much for the American film makers to learn from this Danish production!!!!

  • @1950Wanda i love the killing american version..i havent seen the danish version..and if you said that the us version is not worth watching then maybe the danish version will blow my mind on the fact that its so gr8..actually i always believed when it comes to remakes you will love the one that youve seen first..and i love the killing us version..its gr8 just finished watching it now..guess ill have to see the danish version now..maybe theyll have the second season..i cant w8 for the 2nd season.

  • @msjeopardy24 The writer and producer was involved in the American version. It's pretty different. Veena Sud who created the original Danish series wrote the pilot for the American series. I'm watching them back to back almost and they may have a similar thread but they are completely different. I do prefer the Danish one but I'm biased, I'm Scottish. I can't wait to have enough money to get to Denmark.

  • @kablasoni i have downloaded the danish version but havent seen it all,, im in the 2nd episode only, i dont know if i should watch the danish version now bcoz it may spoil the american version for me but i have to w8 for a long time to watch the 2nd season of the american version.

  • @kablasoni The writer and creator of the original Danish Forbrydelsen is Søren Sveistrup !!!

    Not V. Sud. She's the one who butchered the American version.

  • @1950Wanda - agreed. I watched 3 episodes of the US version before giving up on it. Then someone told me I had to see the Danish version - Fantastic! Both the pace and suspense of the original are far superior, and the soundtrack is superb. Series 2 on UK TV this autumn, can't wait.

  • Hurrah! Nice to be able to listen to the music without some BBC announcer chiming in with "Tune in next week.........." lol. All credit to BBC4 though for bringing this great series and others to us in the UK. Unbelieveable to think BBC4 may be cut! It's the only channel with any quality.

  • Listen to Frans Bak's sound tracks on his homepage:

    fransbak dot com

  • absolutely amazing show, gripping from start to finish

    if Americans were willing to read subtitles they wouldn't bother with their rather feeble remake

    thanks to BBC4 in the UK we get to watch some great European series like 'Spiral' from France and 'Wallander' from Sweden, good old beeb

  • where can we get Bak's tune ?

  • @Thompy69

    Frans Bak's tracks are here:

    soundcloud *dot* com/fransbak/tracks

  • @krisb130 Thanks ! Much appreciated

  • @krisb130 thanks you so much for this...finally can listen to all the music...especially track 034 (the sad music) which is AMAZING

  • brilliant show ,nothing to envy,to american series,can't wait to see season 3

  • I can't stop listening to it!

  • What plot holes?

  • Even wit the loose ends & plot holes, still the best show since The Wire. Moody, noirish, subtle characterisation, just great, gripping from start to finish.

  • WHY THE HELL IS SEASON 2 BASED OFF OF TERRORISTS??? No one wants to watch a Mystery about an entire War!!! I want there to be 1 simple death not an entire war. It ruins Season 2. I REALLY HOPE Veena Sud changes the US's version of Season 2 of The Killing.

  • @11poketrainer Season 2 has nothing to do with terrorist. It is about 1 murder, as the first season. But some of the suspects are soldiers in the danish army.

  • In the Danish Series, the killer was Belko. They promised to have a different killer in the English version of The Killing on amc.

  • @11poketrainer

    Well, as of ep 10, he's no longer a suspect.

  • Thanks god, there will be a third season. YES!!!!

  • A work that is peerless in all areas of production. Series ONE has taken over my life. I have never cried in a crime series before. I have now.

  • Thanks for posting this music. It is amazing. I do wish people would not bash America for doing their own version of this wonderful show. I think it is a complement, and you should too. To those who say we Americans do not have our own ideas, please see Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, True Blood, Dexter, and a myriad of other truly American shows that are absolutely fantastic. Yes, many Americans watch stupid inane garbage, but most truly want good TV shows with good actors.

  • 3:10 is priceless. From a danish fan. Can't wait for Forbrydelsen 3.

  • love this series , cant wait for the next one to hit the uk screen. music trailer is fabulous it really sets the mood

  • were do you find the amazing song in Forbrydlesen? You know the music that plays when any of the "twin peaksy" scenes run. Like when the parents are at the police station, and the guy leaves the door open, and they see their daughters photos on the wall????? Anyone know where I can hear that?

  • Congrats to all for winning the Bafta for Best International Programme

  • To the idiots saying the US version is bad etc. have you actually seen the episodes? They are awesome! And the story is going to be different than the Danish version, with a different ending/different suspects etc. So yeah. The US version is not a rip off of the Danish version, but rather an adaptation of the theme.

    Great music BTW, suits the dark tone of the series. Excellent stuff.

  • @747Springbok I've seen it. And still I think it's not half as good as the original. I'll watch the US version, I'd like to know wo the killer is, but still it's not as brilliant. The main character is fine - she's not trying to play Linden from the Danish version. But the parents, Richmond - they are like caricatures of the original characters.

    It's just my opinion anyway.

  • @747Springbok I have. They just show that americans don't have ideas of their own neither the intelligence to watch a foreign tv-show.

  • @rivanool Actually, by US standards anyway, "The Killing" is the most sophisticated television to be aired in many, many years. It does lack some of the nuance of the Danish original, but the English dialogue is excellent, faithful to the original but with many subtle and effective cultural parallels in the translation.

  • @milnoid : LOL. Go watch Breaking Bad or The Wire to see a show better than the American Killing. The American Killing was decent, but nowhere near as good as the shows I mentioned.

  • @Notebookwriter1 Yes, maybe I overstated. Breaking Bad in particular is brilliantly conceived and has had some phenomenal moments (turtle in the desert, pilgrims crawling to the saint of assassins). No cultural translation required. The US Killing, alas, has displayed some lethargic performances recently that compare unfavourably with the Danish version. Still, it's surprisingly good television. So too, by the way, is Game of Thrones. Even "Justified" surprised me with some fine acting.

  • @milnoid : I sounded kind of elitist in that last statement I made. Sorry. Oh, and if you like Game Of Thrones, then please read the books.

  • Thank you, thank you, thank you for this theme! I love it. One of the best musical themes of all time. Full of sadness, energy, suspense. I hope BBC aires season 2. (I've just seen an American equivalent of the series on youtube (a little part)... What for did they do it???? And, of course, they spoiled everything. They should keep their hands off European talented filmmakers.)

  • For you UK fans. I will just say; Get ready for season 2, it's even better! :-) Not as long as the first season, but filled with suspense, and it's also heart breaking (in a good way) ;-)

    Btw. Watch out for Season2 spoilers, the ending is on youtube already...

    Ps. Season 3 is currently in production. :-)

  • @tcktothemaxxx Can't wait there is so much mindless reality tat on TV these days it is wonderful to have the prospect of some well written, well produced drama to look forward to .... otherwise with all the hype of digital and multi channels there is precious little worth the price of the electricity to watch these days.

  • My only complaint is against the BBC for interrupting the end credits with a cheery continuity announcement. How thoughtless was that!!!!!!!

  • I know who the murder is because i am danish and saw it in 2007! THE MURDER IS BEEEEEEEP !!!

  • That's what I thought! :)))

  • Brilliant show. Can't wait for the second series to air in the UK. Magnificent ensemble acting with the intensely compelling Lund at the centre of it all. Bak's theme was great too.

  • It should have been aired on BBC2 instead of being tucked away on a minor channel I'm sure Forbrydelsen. would have broken the record in ratings for BBC2 Brilliant drama all the way through its 20 glorious episodes

  • Brilliant series - can anyone upload the whole thing so I can watch it again? Please.

  • This was great. So much better than the American crap we keep getting. This was easily better than the best US stuff. What talent there is in Denmark! Looking forward to Killing II.

    Thanks for posting.

  • Brilliant theme song from "the killing" on BBC four

  • The boxed set is out soon.. arrowfilms.co.uk

  • Just excellent

  • Thanks its an amazing thriller and fantastic theme music

  • utterly incredible show, and that end theme damn near induces a panic attack in me!

  • Totally absorbing, one of the best crime dramas ever made

  • Cant find the link to download this theme soundtrack .or to buy it ,

    Help needed love this track..

    Thanks

  • @3khalidali If you're using Firefox, you could try using the extension Video Downloadhelper

    @pcscon As far as I can tell, the downloads at the DR Forbrydelsen-site are only small snippets compared to this one.

  • Best Danish Crime Drama ever!

  • tremendous series. has me totally enthralled.

    thanks so much for posting this

  • The only television series that has altered my schedule in that I have not been out on a Saturday night since BBC4 has started showing it. Superb drama!
