Product description
Originally created from the novels by award-winning writer Ann Cleeves (Vera) and set against a hauntingly beautiful landscape, Shetland follows DI Jimmy Perez (Douglas Henshall) and his team as they investigate complex crimes within a close-knit island community. In this isolated and sometimes inhospitable environment, the team must rely on a uniquely resourceful style of policing to unpick the truth. Series one and two are based on bestselling books Red Bones, Raven Black, Dead Water and Blue Lightning. Each subsequent instalment focuses on an original single mystery written for television, each told over six gripping episodes. Series three sees Perez tackling a conspiracy that takes him back to the Scottish mainland in a case that will exact a terrible personal toll on both him and his team. Perez faces murders from the past and present with unsettling similarities in series four, when an investigation leads him closer to home than he could have ever imagined. In the latest series, a gruesome discovery on a beach unleashes a disturbing case that reaches far beyond the islands shores.

There is no option to navigate between episodes of Series 1 and Series 2 stories; instead of individual episodes each story is cut together into one feature length film. It is virtually impossible to find where one episode ends and the next begins. Individual chapters bear no resemblance to the actual episode structure. I was looking forward to an evening watching an episode of my favourite programme and saving the other half for tomorrow. Instead I’m writing a one star review I never expected to give.
This wasn’t the only option available to ITV; the digital release is cut into episodes.
We all know ITV don’t give a rat’s a*rse about anything except making money so I’m not surprised there was no mention on the packaging, but if you’re like me and like your tv as originally broadcast give this one a miss.
This only applies to Series 1 and 2; Series 3 onwards seem to be navigable.

If like me you enjoyed series 6 & you are considering buying 1 to 5, then you won’t be disappointed!
