There’s a lozenge of wisdom before every Borgen episode – something profound by Bertrand Russell prefaces this one. But it might as well say “Be careful what you wish for” after Prime Minister Birgitte’s attempts to bring a wayward colleague into line backfire spectacularly.
She’s having trouble with her environment minister, but when she asks her unpleasant spin-doctor Kasper to have a little word in the right ears the government looks like it might topple.

5/10. Kasper persuades Birgitte to use underhand tactics as the government prepares to negotiate the environmental element of the new reform package, and Katrine receives a job offer that goes against her personal beliefs. Meanwhile, the prime minister's children are affected by their mother's work-related stress. Drama, starring Sidse Babett Knudsen, Birgitte Hjort Sorensen and Pilou Asbaek. In Danish.
