Watching a Dutch series on Stan. They translated the title to Floodlands but it really means the Dutch equivalent of "Hillbillies", the people who live on the mudflats.

The show looks quite interesting and blows apart the image of the Dutch being tolerant and urbane. ( they might be in Amsterdam and some of the other cities otherwise it's a shock there )
