ITV Shetland said it would like to thank Lerwick Port Authority and Peterson SBS for their valuable help with regard to the Dales Voe filming plans and to Frank Johnson (FLJ) for his help with location preparation.
ITV Shetland is filming scenes for the ninth series of the crime drama until 19 April. Further filming will take place in June.
