Trivia
The musical composition of the series theme and season one was by Jóhann Jóhannsson in collaboration with composer and cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir. After the death of Jóhannson in 2018 Hildur Guðnadóttir has been lead composer for season 2. At the end of season 2 there is a dedication to Johann Johannson (1969-2018).

Goofs
The snow has inconsistent texture and depth throughout the entire show. This is of course because the filming has taken place over a considerable time. Whereas the story supposedly takes place over about ten days. Some of the snow is obviously spring snow, and wet and heavy, whereas other snow is fresh and very cold.

Cold and creepy!

Being a fan of Nordic noir I thought I would give this series a go and I'm glad I did. Trapped is every bit as good as anything Icelands Scandinavian neighbours have given us. Set in a small port on the Icelandic coast a spate of murders take place taking the local police force out of there comfort zone. Not that this stops the local head of police played by the excellent Olafa Olafson. With no help from the mainland due to the freezing weather he single handily attempts to track down the perpetrator. Trapped is well written,acted and beautifully shot so much so it's the first show that's so cold it makes me want to put a jumper on just watching it! Highly recommended 9/10
