The series centres around a remote Icelandic town as a mutilated and dismembered body washes on the shore, an unidentifiable man murdered only hours ago. The local police chief, Andri (Ólafur Darri Ólafsson), whose personal life is in shatters, realises a killer has descended into his town. As word spreads, order disintegrates into chaos as the town’s residents realise they are all possible suspects.
The series has reportedly received the highest budget invested into an Icelandic series and premiered to 1.2 million viewers on BBC Four. Trapped is under the direction of cinematic filmmaker Baltasar Kormákur who helmed last year’s true-story epic Everest.
The winners are:
Fiona Foskett, Isle of Wight
