• Apply Todorov's theory to The Bridge:

  Equilibrium - Saga living her normal life as a detective but we do not see this

  Disruption - Helle Anker's death and Hannes leg getting blown off

  Recognition - Saga restoring the Equillibrium with Hanne.

  Resolution - No climax, continuing with the murder.

  New Equilibrium - Saga gains a new partner Henrik and all is restored
• Apply Steve Neale's theory to The Bridge:


  -Difference = In the settings of Malmo in Southern Sweden and Denmark's capital copenhagen.

  -Repetition = Red herrings and false leads with the focus on the investigation/.
