He is bland, rather posh, very unexciting and visually boring and rather a caricature - he isnt the sort of man she would be attracted to. The bedroom scenes are devoid of passion and are as cold as his character’s personality. Cmon casting director get casting a real good foil of a love interest for our heroine!

I find it quite amazing that Denmark produces so much, both film and tv series, of exceptional quality. What I marvel most about Borgen is how all relationships and characters are totally believable, almost all. In series 3 it seems there is a miscast or something is not right with the lover of Birgit Nyborg, Jeremy Welsh [Alastair Mackenzie] there is no cemestry and the scenes are really dull. Perhaps the director failed to give the actors space to create their relationship and took it for granted. This misstep took the whole series down. Very unfortunate with such a great accomplishment. Otherwise outstanding craftmanship in every field. I wonder what the producers and actors think of this matter? Unlikely they will admit such a pityful misstep, but we are talking about the Danes here, a superpower when it comes to filmmaking. For sure they did not get so far by hiding their misstakes. I would love to hear some comments on this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09550785123431883761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301752333245558429.post-20331190786918071422020-09-20T00:45:06.548+02:002020-09-20T00:45:06.548+02:00I don't agree that the English dubbing (for S1...I don't agree that the English dubbing (for S1 and S2) ruined the series. If you understand Danish, the English audio should be irrelevant. If you don't understand Danish and think the English dubbing is awful, you would not be able to find the series marvelous as you say it is. The acting skills of voice actors matter more than their particular accents. I don't know what's unconvincing about actors using different dialects of the same language. Or did you want the dubbing in RP accent throughout?

We have a Cockney PR adviser who has a Scottish girlfriend, a Geordie foreign minister, several Yorkshire Labour MPs, a Scouser MP and a Welshman and Irishman as MPs too!! What a joke!! Totally unconvincing and spoiled the Borgen experience. The Dubbers tried TOO hard to represent every accent in the UK and made a right mess in the process. The PMs voice was the only convincing one out of the whole lot. Please sort it out!!!!!SeaReacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10976586962837483487noreply@blogger.com
