'The Bridge' is not just any bridge

The Oresund bridge between the Copenhagen capital Denmark and the Swedish city of Malmö is one of the best-known bridges in the world.

It achieved global fame by appearing as the moody backdrop to Scandinavian TV crime drama 'The Bridge,' which has been shown in more than 100 countries.

The bridge recently turned 18 and has become a symbol for European cross-border cooperation. Maddy Savage reports on what sort of success it's had in economic terms.
