Anyone watching? I love this series and fancy Perez Grin He seems to have some extra timber on him.. I don’t like him in a suit, much prefer a fishermans knitted jumper on him..

Where were we left when the last series ended? Did he get together with someone? Someone who seemed to have shady motives? I can’t remember!

I think it's probably safer living in Mogadishu

🤣🤣 - but I think the fishing is better in Shetland 😉

Nurse O'Flirty (love it) does seem very persistent. Maybe a career dealing with dying folks can make you like that.
Perez snr played a good part, nice ending.
I'm glad Tosh is pregnant and happy. That rape was horrifying, so I'm pleased that she can have a relationship with a decent man.
I didn't find that Fiscal particularly convincing, but maybe she didn't have much to work with.

@FluffyBooBoo - I hate fish, so it's Mogadishu for me. Mind you, I do like cake...(conflicted)

They do seem to have a higher than average fertility rate
Maybe it's to make up for the higher than average murder rate Grin

The murder rate is giving Midsummer a run for their money.

I hope Storm Arwen hasn't blown The Cake Fridges over.

The greatest tragedy of all! Shock

It would be a public duty to stand downwind with your mouth open and catch as many flying cakes as possible @SirSamuelVimes Shock = demonstration of what to do.

SirSamuelVimes · 27/11/2021 18:18

Absolutely, GinnyMackesy!

AlphabetAerobics · 29/11/2021 07:12

Very late to the thread - just got to watch it this weekend.

  1. bemused at all the fuss around a cake fridge. Surely it’s the most natural thing in the world? 😁
  2. Brian blessed who played Magnus Tait did a good Shetland accent.
  3. I always thought Sandy was from Unst. Mind blown!
  4. burying a body on fetlar - easy peasy.

Could we have Cake Fridge Cam?Like they do for the peregrines nesting at Sheffield university

AlphabetAerobics · 29/11/2021 07:51

Ooh you’d trap far too many with a cake fridge - there’d be guilty (of seconds) everywhere.

I think Tosh’s face could carry an entire episode. It’s so wonderfully expressive.

GinnyMackesy · 29/11/2021 12:15

easy peasy.
Wondering if this is from experience?!

GinnyMackesy · 29/11/2021 12:25

Of the reasons to enjoy Shetland - like the scenery, Jimmy's sweaters, Sandy's accent, Nurse O'Flirty being flirty, Billy being Billy, the Cake Fridge - Tosh is high up there for me. Different hair colour, but she reminds me of an old Edinburgh friend I lost touch with but remember fondly - similar looking, with that highly entertaining expressive face and eyes.

GinnyMackesy · 29/11/2021 12:34

The actress who plays Tosh is a Dublin-born Irish lass.

IntermittentParps · 29/11/2021 12:38

@GinnyMackesy

The actress who plays Tosh is a Dublin-born Irish lass.
She's from Glasgow (Motherwell).

Thank you - I have obviously mis-read!

I’m a woman in Shetland. It’d be more strange had I not disposed of a body or two in a peat bog.
GinnyMackesy · 29/11/2021 13:02

There's no answer to that...

LadyEloise1 · 29/11/2021 15:24

I can't believe how Tosh belies her age.
I thought she was 23ish 😮

I knew the Scots were mental...

FluffyBooBoo · 29/11/2021 17:18

Are there any Sandy fans reading? I've just seen that 'Inside I'm Dancing' is on Netflix.

Rhannion · 29/11/2021 18:57

Thank you ! That’s what he was in !!! I knew I’d seen Sandy in something but couldn’t place it.
