Foreign Language TV Series - What We're Watching in 2021

Need something new to watch?
Despite those childhood warnings about getting square eyes, we still both watch an almighty amount of TV and we particularly love watching series in other languages (so it’s educational, right?).
In what has become an annual tradition for Language Chats, we’re chatting about what we’ve been watching this year - from light-hearted Scandinavian series to French reality TV, drama to documentaries, we’ve covered some serious multilingual viewing in 2021!
What have you been watching? Let us know here, in our Facebook Group or Instagram.
