After she goes missing, he tries to point the local Weesenburg police in the right direction, which they resent. Before Barbara goes missing, Thomas tries to help her overcome her drinking and marriage problems. Based in Hamburg, he’s an accomplished detective but has his own fish to fry in the form of the notorious gangster Randow (Roman Knizka).

Then there’s Thomas Bethge (Matthias Brandt), who is not only the head of Germany’s national agency fighting organised crime, but also Barbara Neder’s brother. Whenever she forms a cohesive line of enquiry, her chain-smoking boss or the arrogant prosecutor shut it down. This flawed leadership is combined with a certain level of misogyny towards the most capable detective in the department – Anne Bach, played excellently by Karoline Schuch. The prosecutor and head of CID flail around, latching onto one idea after another, but can’t seem to apply any investigative method to even the most basic questions. Could Becker be responsible for both Barbara’s disappearance and the double murders, or were the latter the work of the angry, depressive sculptor Hans Lingner, who lives by the forest with his family?ĭark Woods begins as a slow burner, thanks in part to the lack of leadership in the Weesenburg police. He was last to see Barbara alive, and he reported her missing.Īnne Back sticks with the case, and her colleague Jan Gerke (August Wittgenstein) sticks to her.Ī little while before she disappears, she also has a encounter with a creepy cemetery gardener called Jürgen Becker who has a history of sexual assault, and the actor Hanno Koffler wrings every bit of cunning he can from this character. That could be a motive for getting rid of her. Robert Neder (Nicholas Ofczarek, as seen in Der Pass) owns a big printing business and wants to leave his wife for a younger woman, but Barbara steals some of Robert’s company files, which might incriminate him. She’s a troubled woman with a rich husband, a teenage daughter and a drinking problem. You’ll meet Barbara in the prelude to her disappearance.

The trouble is, every avenue they explore, they either draw a blank or trip over their own incompetence. Whether or not the crimes are linked isn’t clear in the beginning, but the cases overlap and intertwine because Barbara went missing in Weesenburg, adjacent to the forest, and the same CID unit is working both investigations. The other case is that of the disappearance of Barbara Neder, played by Silke Bodenbender. Back then, the murders were known in the press as the Göhrde-Morde case and they form part of the story of Dark Woods. The programme is inspired by real events and the story begins in 1989. They’ll also be available to stream on Walter Presents.

#THE DARK WOODS SERIAL#

There’s a serial killer out there, the town is in shock, and it’s time for viewers to buckle in for three two-hour episodes which begin airing on More 4 at 9pm on Friday 14 January. The bodies have been there for several weeks and, coincidentally, just as the police are photographing the scene and setting up their forensics, another couple is murdered in similar circumstances less than 800 metres away. Add some weird, primeval sculptures and the desiccated corpses of a couple who were bound, shot and covered in branches, and you start to get an idea of what detectives from the fictional town of Weesenburg are up against. Even in the summer, the tall evergreens block out the sun, leaving walkers feeling disorientated. Whenever i listen to this song i always think: 'this isn't scary this is actually pretty sad'.The shadowy, untamed forests of Lower Saxony provide a suitably eerie backdrop for Dark Woods, the latest German crime drama to hit British screens.
