Series premiere! Father and daughter analyse and discuss episode 1 of Jo Nesbø's Detective Hole (Harry Hole) on Netflix – \"36 Seconds\". A bank robbery, a colleague lost, and five years later Harry reopens the case. We start with the obvious question: Norwegians speaking English in Oslo – does it work, or does it get in the way? We ask whether this is the Oslo we recognise, or an Oslo built for an international audience. We argue about the bank robbery – which period is this actually set in? And we make the case for forgetting every other Nesbø adaptation before you watch this one. Listen to the end, where we share our three takeaways from the episode!
Note: contains spoilers for episode 1 only.
