Every Friday, I let you know the latest announcements about when new, imported TV shows will finally be arriving on UK screens – assuming anyone’s bought anything, of course.

Plenty of things being bought this week.

BBC Four’s just acquired TV3 (Sweden)’s Svartsjön (Black Lake)
5USA’s just acquired NBC (US)’s Law & Order: LA

But no premiere dates for either, I’m afraid. Sorry!
