Shetland

[maggiebee]

Is anyone watching this drama series? Finally caught up with Tuesday's episode last night. Talk about edge of seat, roll on Tues for what I think will be the final part.

[bookbinder]

I'm following it. Everything about it is very well done: acting; stunts; dialogue; not that I'm an expert, of course, but everyone who's taking part deserves high praise for presenting a really good story.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes, it's been brilliant - I was gripping my cushion so hard it hurt.

Excellent.

[marval]

Yes, it is very good, I look forward to Tuesday.

Anyone else think that Olivia is not who she says she is?

[NellieMay]

A great series. All of them have been excellent. I hope they carry on.

[killiegirl]

Enjoyed every series, looking forward to the next one x

[Lie-in King]

Another great series, a really enjoyable watch.

Ann Cleeves latest book in the Shetland series (book 8) has just been released. Called Wild Fire it looks like it will be a great read.

[zebo]

Over half way through reading Wild Fire, very good, should make a good TV programme. The TV series has changed the time scale regarding Cassie, his 'daughter' but they're still brilliant, no-one fits his book image as well as Douglas Henshall!

[goodgoalie]

Agree that it's very cleverly done, and draws you in with interesting, characters you care about - unlike many many other TV dramas recently that I could mention (MotherFatherSon, anyone?). Just a bit of a shame that there are so few Shetland accents: only Steven Robertson of the main characters has one. It's a very particular accent, and I'd imagine difficult to master - Robertson was born in Shetland, though

Very good, can't wait for final episode, really nail biting!
