The Team: DR1's Cross-Border Crime Drama

How a Danish thriller about a Europol task force became a Nordic television phenomenon

In February 2015, Denmark's DR1 launched Mord uden grænser (The Team), a fictional crime series following an international investigation into serial murders across Copenhagen, Antwerp, and Berlin. The premiere drew 1.5 million viewers—55% of Denmark's television audience—and spawned a second season three years later.
