What elevates Witnesses above many police dramas is the location. This French series is based in Le Treport, a town closer to Dieppe than Calais. It is a strange mix of an old fishing port, light industry, a marina and now a holiday resort complete with a casino. Oh yes, an abandoned prison also makes an appearance.
It's towering white cliffs would easily slot into those on the opposite English coastline. You can also just make out the funicular railway which goes up to a tunnel halfway up the cliffs. Another dramatic setting.
