It's like Christmas has come early! It's looks tense from the trailer/advert. So sad it's the last one though-or is it just Perez's last series? Love Tosh. Can't stand Sandy. I'd love to visit up there.

Oh great! My favourite- thanks for posting this!

QuestionableMouse · 04/08/2022 23:51

It's the last one with him, apparently there's someone new coming in. I absolutely can't wait to see it 😁

Yay ..... thanks for the tip

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 05/08/2022 21:26

He's leaving! Sad Sad Sad

Thanks for the tip off. I love Shetland.

I've just set it to record as I'm bound to forget or be interrupted.

It's just Douglas Henshall's last series.
I wonder who the new boss will be? Part of me wants Tosh to get promoted, but then again I like her being the slightly less senior one who gets to eye-roll/question the big boss.

AlternativelyWired · 10/08/2022 21:51

I watched it this evening. So, is it coming back without Perez or is this the final series?

I love this series. It feels like it should be autumn or winter when I watch it. I really want to watch the next episode but shall be good and wait until next week.

just watching - I like Sandy as he's real...

Off to a good start. Really liked the first episode. Can't believe it's Douglas Henshalls last series!

As in, not that good at his job?

I was thinking last night you'd be lucky to get the Met round within the month for a missing adult. On Shetland, the entire CID works on this exclusively hours after his last sighting!

Rumours are Tosh will take the lead for the next series.

AlternativelyWired · 11/08/2022 10:19

She's been acting DI so that would make sense. Lots to go with there too with the baby (how cute was that scene!) and her boyfriend's coffee with his ex and downplaying his previous relationship with her. There was someone new in the police station but hardly appeared in the episode-maybe she will take a bigger role as the series continues.

It won't be the same without Perez and his cosy jumpers!

Inkanta · 11/08/2022 18:39

I started watching and then thought I'd rather watch this in Autumn when it's a bit more bleak colder outside. Have stopped for now.

howdidigethere · 11/08/2022 21:14

I like 'Shetland' but I do occasionally imagine the drama sliding into a comedy sketch. Maybe it's the daft expression on Tosh's face or Dougie Henshall emoting like billy-o in a heavy knit as some lovelorn woman pines for him at a beach party. I need to take it more seriously!

NotASecret · 11/08/2022 22:55

I love Shetland. I love how the first episode is always eye-rollingly explain-y (eg, 'I know you're using work to avoid being hurt again, since the tragic death of your father and also the imprisonment of your charismatic best friend, but I too have hidden pain which may become apparent over the next few weeks etc etc') and yet by the middle of episode two I'm flipping through Rightmove Lerwick.

Sandy has not progressed from dealing with traffic accidents for a reason. Jimmy still closes a phone conversation by staring enigmatically into space instead of saying, Cheers, bye, like everyone else. Tosh and Billy still doing aaaalllll the work.

I'm catching up with ep 1 - will the cake fridge make an appearance this series or has it been offered a Hollywood contract?

I drove miles out of the way to get to a cake fridge (or two..) when I went to Shetland. They are wonderful things.
