Shetland has returned for an 11th series on BBC One, with the beloved Scottish detective drama set kicking off with a chilling discovery when the remains of a man are recovered from a car dragged up from the depths. The vehicle is traced back to Dr Raymond Linden, a well-regarded local GP who vanished from the islands nine years ago. What follows is a gripping investigation to locate Dr Linden and establish the identity of the victim. As the detectives delve deeper into the mystery, they must confront Raymond Linden's family, and their pursuit of the truth leads them down unexpectedly sinister and perilous paths.

Ashley Jensen returns for another series, with the 57 year old Scottish actress widely recognised for her roles in Extras, Ugly Betty and Agatha Raisin, reports the Daily Record.

In August 2023, Jensen tied the knot with Vera actor Kenny Doughty. Ahead of the new series, she spoke candidly about the challenges facing Calder, saying: "I think one of her biggest challenges is feeling abandoned. It's nobody's fault, but she's finally allowed herself to relax. She might even have quietly admitted to herself, 'I'm actually quite content. I'm happy'. And then her whole world is shaken again."

Alison O'Donnell makes her final appearance as Tosh, having announced her departure from the show after 14 years. Reflecting on filming her last scenes, she shared: "When something is as seismic as this was, you just can't really take it in as you're doing it.

"It's like trying to look directly at the sun. It's too big and powerful. So, I just got my costume on and went to set and tried to soak it all in and spend time with my favourite people and serve the scenes."

O'Donnell is a Scottish actress who has previously appeared in minor roles in Holby City and Feel the Force. She is in a relationship with Scottish playwright D.C. Jackson.

The new series will see Sandy forge a close bond with recluse Donald Pierce, an unusual local figure connected to the case.
