Shetland

Shetland is based on the books by Ann Cleeves and the beautiful Scottish scenery alone makes the show worth watching. Scottish actor Douglas Henshall stars as DI Jimmy Perez who leads murder investigations on the blustery Scottish Shetland Isles. While the show is good, I’ve found some of the episodes frustratingly overcomplicated and drawn out. The show also stars Alison O’Donnell as DS “Tosh” and Steven Robertson (Luther) as DC Sandy Wilson.
