"The Tunnel" is actually a UK/France remake of the Swedish/Danish series
"The Bridge". In that case, the body that kicks things off is found in the
middle of the Øresund Bridge which runs between the two countries. That
series aired on BBC Four in the UK and was very entertaining. The remake
aired on Sky Atlantic in the UK, and does have a great cast.

There have subsequently been plenty of other remakes around the world, not
least the FX series also called "The Bridge" between El Paso and Juarez.
