Shetland Season 7: Review
Duncan turned himself into the police at the end of the previous series. “You don’t need to do this,” Jimmy tried to stop him, but Duncan replied, “Yes, I do.”
It’s clear that this will not be the focus of the new series, as Douglas informs us that the timeline has advanced a year and Jimmy is back at work.
“His year-long suspension and all of that is coming to an end, and then it’s back to work — it all wraps up fairly quickly. The benefit of having [seasons] six and seven to wrap up the show was that we could use a proper arc, and I think he’s just getting to the point where he’s not sure it’s worth it any longer.
I believe he is beginning to realize that there are other things in life besides being a cop.” The team in this series is looking for Connor, a “vulnerable young man” who has gone missing on Shetland.
Douglas continues: “The family has its own history, which we are beginning to unravel. It turns out that Danny Cairns [Connor’s father, played by Andrew Whipp] isn’t who he claims to be, and the story becomes more political as it progresses. It’s very well put together, and I believe it will keep people guessing until the very end.”
