It’s the final series for Laure Berthaud and her roughneck crew, tackling homeless child migrants and organised crime
Spoiler alert: This recap is for people watching Spiral on the BBC. Do not read on unless you have watched season eight, episodes one and two.
It’s hard to fathom that in just four weeks Spiral will be gone from our screens for good. Fifteen years, an eight-season run and international acclaim is a good outcome for a French drama. It’s kept a high standard throughout, with its signature blend of cerebral procedural and high-octane cops and robbers. Laure Berthaud and her crew of roughnecks will be missed – especially BTL on this blog.
