About Uppdrag granskning
Uppdrag granskning is a Swedish investigative news series that probes allegations of misconduct in public and private institutions. Reporters combine long-term reporting with hidden cameras and microphones to document practices that are hard to observe openly. Episodes usually focus on a single case, following interviews, on-the-ground evidence gathering, and editorial scrutiny to build a narrative that aims to inform viewers about possible wrongdoing without revealing final outcomes or court results. The show keeps its emphasis on factual reporting, letting the documented material speak while provoking questions for authorities and the public.
The series premiered in 2001 on Sweden's public broadcaster SVT, produced by the network's investigative unit. Its format draws on classic investigative TV techniques and has been broadcast across multiple seasons, often timed to coincide with current affairs cycles.
Over the years Uppdrag granskning has been recognized within Swedish journalism circles, receiving industry awards and nominations that reflect its impact on investigative reporting. Specific prizes vary by year, but the program's journalism has won acknowledgment for thoroughness and persistence.
Uppdrag granskning has had a noticeable effect on Swedish public debate, turning complex or hidden problems into matters of national conversation. Individual episodes have prompted follow-up reporting, official inquiries, and wider media attention, and the program has become a reference point in discussions about transparency, media ethics, and the balance between public interest and personal privacy.
Critics and audiences tend to praise the show for its rigorous documentation and willingness to tackle sensitive subjects, though it also sparks debate about methods like undercover recording. Common themes include accountability, institutional failure, and access to truth. Viewer ratings and online discussion show it's regarded as an important watchdog program, with a vote average of 7.3 out of 10 from public ratings.
