Department Q on Netflix - starring Mathew Goode as a down on his luck grumpy Scotland Yard Detective

Quibble -- not Scotland Yard, which is the HQ of the Metropolitan Police (London). He's simply a detective with Police Scotland, in Edinburgh.

Have you read any of the Department Q novels by Jussi Adler-Olsen? This first series (hopefully it will be renewed -- it's so good!) is based on the first novel in the series and from what I can remember of that one (read it eons ago), it's pretty faithful, save for moving everything to Scotland from Copenhagen.
