I wonder what happened to the proposed Sky/French remaked supposedly set in the Channel Tunnel? It seems to have quietly died a death.

It's in production, here's everything you need to know;
Canal+ and Sky Atlantic and Kudos Film and TV, working on a remake of Bron/Broen (The Bridge).
The 10-episode season is to debut in the second half of 2013 through the channels Sky Atlantic and Canal Plus.
The series, which will be directed by Cesar Award winning filmmaker Dominik Moll, sees Detectives Roebuck and Wassermann sent to investigate on behalf of their respective countries when a prominent French politician is found dead on the border between the UK and France. However, the case takes a surreal turn when a shocking discovery is made at the crime scene, forcing the French and British police into an uneasy partnership. As the serial killer uses ever more elaborate and ingenious methods to highlight the moral bankruptcy of modern society, Karl and Elise are drawn deeper into his increasingly personal agenda.
