Wallander is a British television series adapted from the
novelist 's
novels and starring
as the eponymous police inspector. The first three-episode series, produced by ,
and TKBC for , was broadcast on
from November to December 2008. It is the first time the Wallander novels have been adapted into an English-language production. Yellow Bird, formed by Mankell, began negotiations with British companies to produce the adaptations in 2006. In 2007, Branagh met with Mankell to discuss playing the role. Contracts were signed and work began on the films, adapted from ,
and , in January 2008. Emmy-award-winning director
was hired as lead director. Martin worked with cinematographer
to establish a visual style for the series.
The second series was filmed from July to October 2009 and was broadcast in January 2010. The third series was filmed in the summer of 2011 in ,
and , , and aired in July 2012. Critics have written positively of the series, which has won a
(Best Actor for Branagh) and six , including .
The series is based on
(), a detective and police inspector in the small town of , . Branagh describes Wallander as "an
who is questioning what life is about and why he does what he does every day, and for whom acts of violence never become normal. There is a level of empathy with the victims of crime that is almost impossible to contain, and one of the prices he pays for that sort of empathy is a personal life that is a kind of wasteland." In the novels, Wallander regularly listens to opera in his apartment and his car. This signature hobby has been dropped producer Francis Hopkinson believes it would make Wallander too similar to , whose love of opera is already familiar to British viewers. Branagh did not watch any of
before playing the role, preferring to bring his own interpretation of the character to the screen.
Wallander's team at the Ystad police station is made up of: Anne-Britt Hoglund (Smart), Svedberg (Beard), and Magnus (Hiddleston). Of Wallander and Hoglund, Smart said, "Our relationship is based on this impeccable mutual respect which is all very Scandinavian and, actually, more interesting to play." The team is joined at murder scenes by Nyberg (McCabe), a forensics expert. The team is overseen by Lisa Holgersson (Shimmin), Ystad's chief of police. Away from the police station, Wallander has a tempestuous relationship with his daughter Linda (Spark) and his father Povel (Warner), who Wallander discovers in Sidetracked has recently been diagnosed with . Wallander's father spends his days sitting in an art studio, painting the same landscape repeatedly while in the care of his new wife Gertrude (Hemingway).

Kenneth Branagh approached Henning Mankell personally, asking if he could play Wallander
In 2006, Yellow Bird managing director Morten Fisker opened discussions with British production companies about developing English-language adaptations of the Kurt Wallander novels, to which Yellow Bird holds the distribution rights. The BBC and Channel 4 were believed to be inv the BBC had already announced plans to adapt Mankell's . Fisker wanted to bring a new detective to British screens to replace Inspector Morse, who had been killed off on-screen in 2000. Actors proposed to play Wallander were , , , ,
and . Negotiations were still under way in 2007, when Kenneth Branagh met Henning Mankell at an
film festival and asked to play Wallander. Branagh had started reading the Wallander books "relatively late" but enjoyed them, and read all nine translated novels in a month. Mankell agreed to let Branagh play the role, and Branagh visited Ystad in December to scout for locations and meet Film i Sk?nes chief executive Ralf Ivarsson.
A series of three 90-minute adaptations was commissioned by 's Anne Mensah and BBC Controller of Fiction
in January 2008. Like Morten Fisker, the BBC wanted a returning series that would have the same audience appeal as ,
and . Yellow Bird was contracted as a co-producer, working with , a production house formed in 2007 by former ITV Controller of Comedy, Drama and Film . Harries described Wallander as "more than just a detective series" and that it would be visually "very picture postcard". The first series consists of adaptations of ,
was hired as lead director of the series, and met with Branagh, Harries and Left Bank producer Francis Hopkinson in January. The four discussed how the adaptations would appear on screen, agreeing that the characterisations, atmosphere and ideas would be difficult to portray on screen. Richard Cottan was hired to adapt Mankell's novels, and delivered his first scripts in February. Cottan changed the plots of some of the books in order to fit them into a 90-minute adaptation, though made sure the scripts retained Wallander's "journey". The following month, Martin began discussions with cinematographer
about what visual style the films would have. They agreed to use the
digital camera to shoot on, which has a near- resolution and is not as expensive as 35  Dod Mantle said that the BBC "has politics" about the cheaper
and . Casting of British actors, which was done in London, was completed by April, and the whole crew moved over to Ystad to begin rehearsals. Martin wanted the actors playing police officers to know how to fire a gun, so arranged for them to spend time at a firing range using live ammunition.
A ?6 million budget was originally assigned to the first series, which increased to ?7.5 million. Half of that came from the BBC, and the rest from pre-sale co-production funding from American
and German , and a tax deduction for filming in Sweden. Germany's
and America's
are credited as co-producers for their budget contribution. Using scripts adapted by Richard Cottan and Richard McBrien, filming ran for 12 weeks from April to July 2008 in Wallander's hometown of , .
Location filming was principally set in Ystad. Interior sets were constructed at Ystad Studios under the supervision of Anders Olin, who also designed the sets of the Swedish Wallander films. The main police station set is 500 square metres, twice the size of Olin's previous sets. For exterior shots of the police station, a combination of the Ystad railway station and swimming pool was used. Mock-ups of Ystads Allehanda, a local newspaper, were produced as working props. Producer Simon Moseley explained that the mock-ups use Swedish words that can be understood by English-speaking audiences. Moseley also explained that some pronunciations of Swedish words are Anglicised (such as the pronunciation of "Ystad" and "Wallander"), as "the authentic local accent is very strange to English ears and we didn't want to stray into
territory". Like Branagh, Philip Martin did not watch any of the Swedish-language Wallander films so that he could bring a fresh interpretation to the films. Filming was scheduled for 66 days over 12 weeks in S each film would be shot back-to-back over 22 days. Martin directed the first and third films and
directed the second. Dod Mantle was keen to conceive a good style for what could become a long-running series.
Filming on Sidetracked commenced on 14 April on location at a townhouse in S?dra ?nggatan, Ystad. The same week, filming was done at H?ckeberga Castle near . Another castle was going to be used, but the deal fell through. The manager of H?ckeberga Castle, which had been turned into a hotel, allowed filming to take place there on the night of 17 April, though guests had to be moved to stables for the night. Scenes set in the rapeseed field were filmed at Charlottenlund Mansion. Location scouts had been impressed with the look of the winter rapeseed. The team from Danish Special Effects had difficulty setting the field on fire. Using the Red One digital camera meant that
could be viewed on set, saving time on the already tight schedule. Martin and Dod Mantle believed that the Red captured the Swedish light well, so there was no need to use big lighting rigs. The cheaper filming option meant that the budget could be used on other things.
One Step Behind was filmed in May. The opening scene, featuring a multiple murder and burial in the woods, was filmed on location at the Hagestads nature reserve. A large hole was needed for the shallow grave, so Yellow Bird approached the local authority for permission. The request was granted on the same day as it was lodged, with the stipulation that the hole be filled in after filming. Niall MacCormick arrived in Sweden to film Firewall in June, concluding in the third week of July. Danish Special Effects also worked on body , bullet hits and atmospheric effects. Their post-production work was completed in August. While the crew were in Sweden, editing was done at The Chimney Pot in . Post-production was completed by The Farm in London.
composed the soundtrack to the series. A version of "Nostalgia" by Australian singer-songwriter
is the opening theme. The three films of series 1 were broadcast on BBC One on 30 November, 7 December, and 14 December 2008 respectively.
The production of three new films based on ,
was confirmed by the BBC in May 2009 to start in the summer in Ystad. The BBC broadcast the series in January 2010. Richard Cottan wrote Faceless Killers and The Fifth Woman, while Simon Donald wrote The Man Who Smiled.
directed Faceless Killers,
handled The Man Who Smiled while
directed The Fifth Woman. Photographer Igor Martinovic (director of photography on ) worked with Macdonald and Wilson while Lukas Strebel, who won an Emmy in 2009 for , was in charge of photography for "The Fifth Woman.
The second series started shooting on 22 June 2009. The film crew consisted of slightly more Britons, as the Swedish-language films were still filming in the area until December 2009. Yellow Bird's Daniel Ahlqvist said, "It is a quite special that we are doing two different Wallander productions at the same time. So it has been a little bit tougher to recruit competent personnel here in Sk?ne. We came to the conclusion that if we cannot get people from Sk?ne, we might as well bring in folks from the UK rather than Stockholm." The landscape of Sk?ne will be a big part of the second series. Shooting will start in the outskirts of Ystad but a big scene in Ystad city square is planned. Scenes are also planned to be filmed at the summer residence that served as the home for Wallander's father. Faceless killers, was first in the shooting schedule, followed by The Fifth Woman and last The Man Who Smiled. As with Series 1, each episode is filmed over approximately 22–23 days, with just 3–5 days set aside for studio recording, and the rest for location shooting. On 23 June, the film team spent all day in , a coastal town north east of Ystad. Scenes were shot at the local police station and in the town square. Production Manager Nina Sackmann explained that "the town was perfect for what we needed to convey with this film". On 21 July, the portions of road 1015 passing by the
north of Ystad was closed from 11 p.m. until midnight to accommodate the film crew.
On 18 August, closing scenes of The Fifth Woman, where Kurt Wallander is dragged away at gunpoint, were shot on location at Ystad railway station. On the right side of the railway track, this dramatic scene was being filmed and on the left side, commuters were exiting the train. About 40 meters away, the Swedish language Wallander film V?lnaden (The Ghost) was being filmed at the same time. Earlier in the week, scenes were shot at an old automobile repair and maintenance shop from 1928 in . Part of the building had served as a flower shop when Mankell wrote The Fifth Woman and, since a murder victim is a flower shop owner, it was convenient to shoot in the now abandoned building.
Filming on The Man Who Smiled began at the beginning of September. Location production on the episode concluded on 2 October. The first couple of weeks featured location work outside of the swimming baths—which doubles as the exterior of the police station. For the last two weeks, production moved to locations around the countryside of . On Monday evening 14 September, the Ystad city square was closed off to film an important action scene from The Man Who Smiled where Kurt Wallander comes running across the square as a car explodes. The clear blue September sky caused problems with the lighting and they had to wait until the sun started to set.
Kenneth Branagh explained that the challenge for filming series one was to "create" the strange world of Ystad, in part as Henning Mankell sees it, in part as script writer Rick Cottan saw it, and then upon arrival to realise that the town looks different. "To get all these different visions to work together was a bit nervous last year. This year the pressure is to develop the style of this show and develop the characters, for example the other policemen at the station. Branagh claimed that there had been no problems shooting due to weather conditions except the last day of filming: "Henning Mankell often writes about the long Swedish summer rains, but during two years of filming we have not seen any of that. No wonder British tourists like to visit." He also stated that there is a possibility of a third series. "It all depends on how these new episodes are received, but I think I really would like to film more episodes. But we also need to feel that we have something more to offer, more to tell and that the scripts are good." Any filming on a third series would be postponed until 2011, to allow Branagh to work on Thor. Yellow Bird's Daniel Ahlqvist believes that The White Lioness 's South African setting will make it difficult to film, and the post-Cold War plot of The Dogs of Riga is no longer relevant, but sees no reason why Before the Frost and some new story ideas, in the same vein as the original Yellow Bird films could not be developed for the BBC.
Local politicians supported and invested 8,000,000 Swedish kronor (roughly ?750,000) in the second Wallander series through Film i Sk?ne, a regional resource and production centre.
Series 2 features some interesting choices of actors for minor roles. Fredrik Gunnarsson features in Faceless Killers as Valfrid Strom, Gunnarson appears in 17 episodes of
Swedish language
as uniformed police officer Svartman. Rune Bergman had a minor role in the Swedish language adaptation of Faceless Killers and also featured in the TV film Luftslottet. Patrik Karlson featured in the Swedish language adaptation of The Man Who Smiled as well as the TV film Mastermind. Bergman and Karlson have the distinction of appearing in films starring the three different Kurt Wallander actors. Karin Bertling also appears in the English language Faceless Killers and has previously worked on the Swedish-language TV film Before the Frost.
The third series, aired in July 2012. Screenwriter
wrote the scripts for all three films that will make up Series 3. Mankell has worked closely with Harness on the scripts. "He is too busy to talk to me all the time. But we have met to discuss the material, so he is involved in what happens", Harness told Ystads Allehanda.

On 4 August 2011 it was made official that three new films were in production. The filming of
started in
on 1 August at The Hotel Riga, and concluded on 20 August. More scenes were shot in Ystad the following week. This film is directed by Esther May Campbell, and features
by Lukas Strebel who worked on the second Wallander series. The production tried to use as many
actors as possible but a problem arose as most
actors had a very limited knowledge of English. Latvian actor
was the only native actor that landed a speaking role in the film. He portrayed Colonel Putnis. Romanian Actor
portrays Sergei Upitis, an investigative journalist. The film was partially funded by The Riga Film Fund and co-stars
On 10 August, several scenes were shot outside the
and outside a building on Jēkaba street that was decorated with Swedish flags, to stand in for the Swedish embassy in Riga. On 13 August, the city closed down several streets to accommodate the filming. On 16 August scenes were filmed at
central station. The national
used in for this production had been equipped with stickers that said Rīgas pilsētas policijas (Riga City Police). These stickers covered up the usual
that Latvian
are decorated with, these stickers were designed specifically for the film and are easily removed. Nothing on Latvian police cars specifies what city they serve in.
On 22 August the film team was back in Sweden to film for one week. The shooting started at a football pitch in , that has been converted into a filming area. Producer Hillary Benson explained to local press that once The Dogs of Riga had wrapped up, the film team would be back in mid October to start filming the other two episodes. The first two series were filmed in the summer, this time around the aim was to film in autumn and winter.
The other two films in the series are , based on the novel of the same name, and An Event in Autumn, which is based on the short story H?ndelse om h?sten (The Grave), a short story from 2004 published only in the .
Before The Frost was directed by . Filming started in Ystad on Wednesday, 12 October 2011. The first days of shooting were stunts and scenes with an animal trainer as Kenneth Branagh did not arrive until Monday 17. Scenes were also shot at The Chemistry Hall at the Macklean School in . With the local
on standby, a
poured petrol over himself and then set himself alight. This three-minute long film sequence took nine and a half hours to shoot. Filming began on Friday the 14th at 6 pm and wrapped at 3:30 am on Saturday morning. The film crew later came back at the end of October to shoot a scene using
Christin Stigborgs' office. From Tuesday, 24 October and until the end of the week, three streets in central Ystad (Lilla Norregatan, Stora Norregatan and Sladdergatan) had to be closed down for a short time to shoot several scenes.
Parts of the film were shot in the
nature conservation area, . Filming took place for several days along the roads and a parking space. This was mainly shots of the environment and the nature of the conversation area and the , according to production manager Martin Ersg?rd.
An Event in Autumn was the last film. Filming started Monday, 14 November and was directed by
According to
producer Daniel Ahlqvist, An Event In Autumn is about how "Kurt tries to take charge of his own life by getting a new house but gets interrupted and is more or less forced back to his job".
On 21 October and 23 the crew was filming at an old small farm in the small village of . It is around the corner from the house where Wallander's father lived in the previous films. The small farm house is Wallander's new home but the remains of a dead woman are found on the property. Due to time constraints and unusually for a
production, all scenes were filmed with two cameras to provide more material for post production and cutting. The last week of shooting included filming some scenes in .
With the previous two series, the
invested 7 and 8 million Swedish Krona through its subsidiary Film i Sk?ne. With the third series, the
only wanted to invest 2 million Krona. They later signed on to support the production by other means such as letting
use Ystad Studios for free, worth about half a million Swedish Krona. City of Ystad-?sterlens Film Bond also invested 2 million Swedish Krona.

The series received a positive reception from critics, who praised both Branagh's performance and the in a preview of the BBC's Autumn season, Mark Wright of
wrote that Branagh was "a good fit" for the character and had "high hopes for the success of [the] series". Previewing Sidetracked,
's David Chater called Branagh "superb as Kurt Wallander", and the series "one of those superior cop shows in which the character of the detective matters more than the plot". In a feature in The Knowledge, a supplement of The Times,
called Branagh's performance "understated, ruminative, warm, sensitive and depressed" and wrote positively of the design and cinematography and concluded by writing that "Wallander is that rare treasure: a popular form used for intelligent, thoughtful, classy drama and superbly shot". At the time the series was commissioned, Scottish author
expressed disappointment to
that BBC Scotland was producing adaptations of S "My main caveat is that there's so much good, complex and diverse Scottish crime writing going on right now that I'd like to have seen BBC Scotland pick up on that".
Reviewing Sidetracked after it aired,
called it, "often a visually dazzling experience, the camerawork as attentive to the contours of Branagh's stubbly, despairing face as it was to the Swedish locations in which the action took place or the bruised pastels of a Munch sunset". He praised Branagh's acting but felt the Wallander character was "shallower than the performance, the disaffection and
just another detective gimmick".
's Kira Cochrane was also complimentary to Branagh, calling him "faultless", but was not impressed with the scenes between Wallander and his father, which she believed slowed the pace of the film, as she did not want to learn Wallander's entire backstory immediately. Like Sutcliffe, Cochrane praised the cinematography and was pleased that the ending "tied up nicely". Andrew Billen of The Times wrote, "This distinctly superior cop show is both spare and suggestive, and brilliantly acted." He took time to adjust to Kenneth Branagh as Wallander, and found the warm blue skies of Sweden unexpected. Billen's and Cochrane's opinions of the child abus Billen believed that it was "used too often in fiction, but here it meant something", though Cochrane called it a "familiar element". In , James Walton was disappointed with the revelation that the crimes stemm "once quite a daring TV subject, now a rather clichéd short cut to the black recesses of the human heart". Walton, like others, was complimentary of Branagh, and concluded by writing, "The series still probably won't appeal to fans of , but if you fancy an undoubtedly classy antidote to the cosy cop show, you could do a lot worse." The broadcast had an average 6.2 million viewers and 23.9% audience share. The episode began with a peak of 6.9 million (25.4%) but dropped to 5.8 million (24.6%) at the end. 57.2% of the audience was from the upmarket ABC1 demographic and 6.1% were in the age 16–34 demographic. The average viewer rating was down 300,000 on the same timeslot in the previous week. Final ratings, incorporating those who watched via , was 6.54 million, making it the eighth-most-watched programme on BBC One that week. An editorial in The Independent complained that the episode's closing
a hundred names were displayed in 14 seconds. Branagh called the speed of the credits "insulting". The actors' union
also complained to BBC director general .
Firewall was seen by 5.6 million (23% share), 600,000 viewers and one share point down on the previous week. Final ratings boosted it to 5.90 million and the tenth-most-watched broadcast on BBC One that week. In The Guardian, Sam Wollaston wrote, "with the greyness, the cold, the Scandinavian sadness, and a troubled Kenneth Branagh mooching around in the gloom trying to figure out who killed these people so horribly, it's all pretty perfect." Andrew Billen wrote in The Times that Wallander and Ella's relationship not working out is conventional for a television detective drama, though liked how Wallander's depression "has grown out of the failure of his marriage and the experiences of his career". On TV Scoop website, John Beresford wrote that the episode "went quickly downhill" from the murder of the taxi driver in "Pedestrian plots, characters that wander aimlessly about with next to nothing to do or say, and a format that seems better fitted for radio than it is for television. By that I mean the endless shots where there's a someone on the left of the screen, someone on the right, and they stand there for hours tal...king...verrrry...slow...ly to each other with absolutely nothing else happening." One Step Behind received overnight ratings of 5.6 million (22.4%). Final ratings were recorded as 5.66 million, making it the week's twelfth-most-watched programme on BBC One. David Chater's Times preview called Branagh "a masterpiece of vulnerability and despair". He wrote of the conclusion: "a climactic scene that has been done dozens of times in thrillers, on this one occasion it felt entirely believable". The Daily Record named it "Best of this week's TV" though it was criticised in The Herald; David Belcher called it "far worse than initially reckoned. Never has there been a less observant, more irritating fictional detective". Belcher hoped that no more adaptations would be made.
In a review called "W?ll-and-?r–den ?kta Wallander" (the title is first poking fun at Branagh's pronunciation of Wallander while at the same time calling this Wallander version the real or proper Wallander), Martin Andersson of Southern Sweden's main daily newspaper
was very positive to Branagh's interpretation of Wallander, and thought the BBC series to be of better quality than the current Swedish-language series of films. He emphasises that not only is Branagh's performance of higher quality than the current Swedish Wallander actor , but the BBC series really understands how to use the nature and environment of the
province to tell the proper story and added that, as a person from Southern Sweden, he recognised all the settings and they had never looked as beautiful as in this production.

interview, Henning Mankell announced that he has a new Wallander book in the works. Several Swedish media outlets have speculated that the renewed Wallander interest in the UK and the warm reception of the BBC adaptations has sparked a new motivation in writing further W Mankell's last book starring the Ystad inspector was originally published in 1999. The new and final Kurt Wallander book, , was published in Swedish in August 2009.
The increase in sales of the novels already published in the UK was also attributed to the television series.
The series has resulted in a new interest among British tourists to visit Sweden, and especially Ystad and the
province according to Itta Johnson, Marketing Strategist with
County. Johnson reports that in the past British people were reluctant to visit Sweden since they saw the country as cold and expensive, but now questions are mostly about the light and the nature seen in the BBC series.
reports that Sk?ne is the only Swedish region that has seen an increase in hotel visits during the first quarter of 2009. The largest increase in non-Scandinavian tourists is seen among Britons, who now count for 12% which is almost as large as the percentage of visitors from Germany, at 13%. In 2009, Ystad saw an increase of tourists from the UK with 18%, and local politicians credit the BBC Wallander series with attracting British tourists.
Itta Johnson estimates that 2-3% of the people who watched the first series of Wallander on the BBC decided to visit the region. In 2008 tourism brought into Ystad 51 million Swedish kronor (c. ?4.4 million) and with the influx of British tourists this number could very likely be higher for 2009.
"A lot of travel organisers from the UK call and want to include Ystad in what they can offer their clients" says Marie Holmstr?m, tourism coordinator with
tourism agency. "This year (2009) we have 30% more hotel bookings from , compared to last year.
says many good things about this town and we have received many requests from British press". Jolanta Olsson, tourism coordinator with
tourism agency, says they get many requests from visiting Britons concerning shooting locations and where the film crew reside.
