When I first saw this on BBC4's Icelandic Season I wasn't sure what to expect. I wasn't even sure if it was supposed to be a comedy but as the episodes have advanced I have become totally engrossed in it. The characters are brilliant, from Georg the despotic leader to Olafur the hapless and hopeless wannabe famous band manager and the frustrated and angry Daniel. Really good supporting characters are Ylfa who quite obviously fancies Daniel and Georg's son Flemming Geir who Georg also manages to wind up.
I do hope they make more of these shows....It's must see entertainment with a difference!!!
