Shetland: Season Four - Episode Three

Perez: 'This isn't your case any more. You had your chance over twenty-three years ago, and you blew it.'

I was ready to dislike this week's episode. For me, Shetland is at its best when it's telling parochial stories about island folk, so I wasn't sure the temporary shift to urban far-right politics would work. Turns out my concerns were unfounded: as well as providing some lovely scenery, the coldness and remoteness of the Nordic countryside were a great tonal match for the subarctic archipelago.
