Shetland season 8

[laplage]

Anyone else looking forward to the new season starting on Wednesday? It will seem a bit strange without Perez but looks to be a good cast and storyline so far as we know.

I’m very much looking forward to it.

Ahh yes will watch but miss Perez already.

It will be strange with no Perez and Agatha Raisin instead!

Looking forward to it.

I am looking forward to. The trailer looks promising

Looking forward to it. Agatha grows up!

Just a reminder that this weekly six part series starts tonight at 9pm on BBC1 and tomorrow at 10.30pm on BBC Scotland. Having read all the Shetland books by Ann Cleeves, watched the first 7 series with Dougie Henshall, and watched Ashley Jenson in Agatha Raisin, I'm looking forward to it.

T-shirt for you and here he is raiding a cake fridge.

Not sure I can take Agatha seriously. She just makes me laugh looking at her!

A strong start (but a cross over with the Guilt cast)!

Just had a check after i recognized her, Heather Bain is played by Lorraine Mcintosh from Deacon Blue.. who'd of thought!

I’m quite liking it. It’s different without Perez but I like the two female leads

I really enjoyed the first episode of this series.

I really liked this

Anyone notice all the green? Coats, walls, carpets, more coats, van, coats...

Anyway lovely to see it back. How does Tosh manage to look ten years younger?

Thank you! I didn’t even know it was on let alone Perez had gone!

Really enjoyed this. Was unsure how it would be without Perez but that was a good start.

agree about the Guilt Cast, phyllis logan must love being a bad grandmother!

Really enjoyed this first episode of the new series. Love the female lead. Love the history of the new detective inspector with the island.

Enjoying it, but so many male characters I was getting a bit mixed up by the end! Who was the dead body on the ground at the very end?

Need Mark bonnar

It was good . I too am wondering who was dead at the end.
