Arts / Shetland crime drama to return to screens in early November
THE FIRST episode from the next series of the Shetland crime drama will be broadcast early next month.
The programme will air on BBC One on Wednesday 1 November at 9pm.
It will see the debut of Ashley Jensen in the lead role after the departure of Douglas Henshall.
The BBC said “the acclaimed murder-mystery series is back for a thrilling, new six-part tale, as Met detective Ruth Calder [Jensen] returns to the Shetland Isles on the trail of a vulnerable witness, teaming up with Tosh on a case that will test their fragile, new partnership”.
The BBC has released more details of the storyline, which can be found here.
