What better time to escape to the seaside \u2013 obviously not a British one, so how about Danish?<\/a><\/p>\n This wouldn\u2019t be the regular sand and sea, but the luxurious setting of the Seaside Hotel, all ten seasons of which are now on Channel 4<\/a> after the final two were added this week, with English subtitles.<\/p>\n Set as the roaring 1920s come to an end, this small Danish hotel on the North Sea coast is a microcosm of the upstairs-downstairs divide.<\/p>\n It will be catnip for fans of Downton Abbey<\/a>, with a similarly rose-tinted trip down memory lane, leading up to the Second World War in a lavish, sumptuous blockbuster series about the end of an era.<\/p>\n This latest addition to Channel 4\u2019s ongoing Walter Presents slate tracks the lives of the hotel\u2019s well-monied regulars as well as the uniformed staff who live locally, to create what the broadcaster has dubbed \u2018a regular hotbed of intrigue\u2019.<\/p>\n The first season sees the arrival of new kitchen maid Fie, who is quickly promoted to chambermaid over a more experienced staff member, on account of her good looks.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t But as the seasons move along, so do the decades, and storm<\/a> clouds begin to gather over Europe as war looms.\u00a0<\/p>\n It\u2019s no surprise that the show has so many seasons in the bag and a glut of rave reviews from viewers online, since it was the most-watched fictional series on Danish television for several years.<\/p>\n \u2018I\u2019d give this 100 stars if I could!\u2019 gushed @gobi-57488 in their IMDb write-up. \u2018A fantastic escape from the weird world we are living in. I highly recommend this series. It does have subtitles. No violence. One of the best series I\u2019ve watched in decades. Love it!!!\u2019<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tWhat other period dramas can I stream?\t\t\t<\/p>\n Little Women<\/a>. This coming-of-age TV adaptation of the classic novel follows four attached-at-the-hip sisters living through the Civil War and its aftermath.<\/p>\n All the Light We Cannot See<\/a>. The story of a blind French teenager and a German soldier who attempt to weather the devastation of World War II together<\/p>\n Harlots<\/a>. The show is set on the streets and in the brothels of Georgian England in the 1760s, as two warring madams battle it out.\u00a0<\/p>\n \t\t There were plenty of appeals to Downton fans in the reviews, with @bobbiekostos describing it as \u2018one of the most delightful, beautifully done shows!\u2019<\/p>\n They added: \u2018A total work of art!! Only downside is reading the subtitles as you don\u2019t want to miss any scene. You will find yourself bingeing on this one.\u2019<\/p>\n @john_francis_s dubbed the show \u2018the perfect antidote to Scandi noir\u2019.<\/p>\n Bask in that warm glow of nostalgia and the long-gone summer sun over on Channel 4.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tIs Seaside Hotel one to add to your watch list?<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tWant to get bespoke updates on the TV shows you love?
