4/5
So let’s give a cautious welcome to series nine, which appears to have a strong but more simple storyline. Go to Full Review

3/5
Fair play to Shetland. Not only has it proved that there is life after DI Jimmy Perez and his black pea coat, thanks to Ashley Jensen in a selection of mismatched knitwear, it kicked off its latest series on BBC1 in a clever way. Go to Full Review

S9 of the excellent crime series Shetland is a true corker, they’re all great but wow. And the fact that two women are in charge of Shetland’s police force! Go to Full Review

Shetland is how the Coens might have started out had they been born in Milngavie rather than Minnesota. Go to Full Review

M R @RT65202318 Nov 12 Awful programme. Ashley Jensen's acting really poor and unbelievable. Story line slow ..Come back Det Perez.. we watched 1st episode and tried 2nd to give it a chance but no good. Turned off. There are other much better series on TV. See more Nancy B. @Hollywood830 Oct 30 I love the two leading ladies, they play well together. This continues to be a great slow even with cast changes. Can't wait for the working relationship to continue to develop in the next season. Bravo for casting two strong female leads. This show is fantastic! See more Fliss C @RT39434415 Oct 15 Poor script, not clear who is the DI, must be male Scottish actor somewhere, needs a male. Tosh’ mouth keeps snarling. Nah, much better series 1 - 7 Wont or cant watch it now. See more K C @RT40750669 Sep 3 Absolutely loved Series 9 can’t get enough of Shetland keep em coming 🙏 See more Jim W @TVViews 03/05/2025 Shetland 9… where multiple twists go to die. See more David D @RT39873619 02/25/2025 Definitely worth a watch. In general, sustained my interest and always enjoy the scenery and the idiosyncratic characters. Was glad it was only six episodes because had had enough of the red herrings and diversions to possible suspects. Like both leads a lot but each, especially Tosh, need to be careful not to play one note (generalization), always responding as frowning beleaguered cop whose job's at odds with friendships. Like to see Calder a little less prickly, especially toward brother (who may be under utilized). A couple loose threads perhaps picked up in next season, i.e., spy Brutus. Guess in the final analysis wish for more character development while in the framework of investigation -- kinda writing you see on "Granchester." Also, I do question a single cop going into some of the situations which seem rather dangerous. But in the end l look forward to Season 10. See more Read all reviews
