For Nordic, well there are so many. I found La Promesse (The Promise duh) to be pretty exceptional, then there's When the Dust Settles, Cry Wolf, Snow Angels, Angel of Death, Raven... depends on what you're looking for. A similar show to LoD, much older, is Between the Lines, which I found quite good.
Thanks, this is exactly what I needed. Old is not a problem: I love Morse, so will gladly give Frost a go. I mean my favorite show of all time might be The Avengers (Steed and Mrs Peel, nothing to do with the superhero vortex of idiocy), love The Singing Detective, The Young Ones etc etc. But right now I just want some suspense, with enough atmosphere to hook you and not so dumb that it's annoying (which is the problem with your generic netflix show).

One nordic noir I really liked was the first season of Trapped. The second season, less so.
