WATCH: Deutschland 83 among Channel 4's new free streaming offerings
Their 'Walter Presents...' strand brings together shows from Sweden, Belgium, Argentina, France, Germany and beyond...
[link]channel4.com[/link] has unveiled its new ‘Walter Presents…’ brand, the Walter in question being Global Series Network Chief Creative Officer, Walter Iuzzolino, who’s scoured the world for the best shows to stream free of charge by registering on the site.
Their flagship is Deutschland 83, the Cold War tale of an East German soldier forced to spy on the West, which Channel 4 are airing conventionally as well on Sunday nights.
You can also gorge on full box-sets of Cenk Batu, another German series that’s described as “Inspector Montalbano on speed”; Czech police thriller The Lens; Pure Evil, an Argentine series in which a psychopathic sect leader vows to make a former policeman and criminologist’s life a living hell, and award-winning Swiss poker thriller 10.
Debuting this Friday at 9pm on More4 and available after that for Walter Presents… catch-up is the “If House of Cards and Borgen were set in Paris” Spin; Blue Eyes, which is described as “Political intrigue, violent murders, and high level corruption, Swedish-style”; Thicker Than Water, “A glorious Nordic Noir with a difference, set in the enchanting Swedish archipelago”, and smash hit Belgian black comedy Clan, which is apparently Desperate Housewives on acid.
Let us also point you in the direction of the 100 Code, a Fortitude-style international collaboration that focuses on an American cop who transfers to the Swedish police force. It starts its Sky Atlantic run at 10pm on Wednesday January 6.
