Where has Shetland gone tonight?

We watched Winterwatch live instead.

We were going to record it and watch it tomorrow until we realised the flippin' football was on; DH did watch the first half or whatever then we switched over.
Quite good fun watching Michaela, Chris and Martin getting blown around!

tinaf1 so it was a 'she' was it? Yep, whispered in her soft voice!

Winterwatch was fantastic tonight. The fox and the eagles - amazing stuff. Roll on Easter for Springwatch.

Thought this thread was about Gertrude at first. Didn't twig, not only because I don't watch Shetland but also I have been looking forward to this particular match for days. Never get to see my club on terrestrial telly so this was a real treat for me, even though we lost. Please do not hold it against me fellow Gransnetters!
PS How long has Shetland got to run as the Six Nations starts soon.

I think another 4 episodes

Alima (Where has shetland gone?/Gertrude!)

Thanks for cheering us up btw.

Nothing personal Alima!! Just general frustration that one of the other beeb channels cannot be used, i.e. BB3!! then everyone , well Shetland fans and sports fans would be happy!!!

Thursdays' Dickensian was cancelled too.

So once again going to have to wait two weeks before the final instalment of Shetland to make way for the rugby

Is that so? - what a pain! I will have lost the plot by then - I am having enough trouble as it is!

I fell asleep again, so I'll have to watch it on catch-up. I'll never hold the plot in my head for a fortnight !

I agree with Luckygirl- I seem to know what is going on now but having to wait two weeks for the finale will be too much and I will have lost the plot.

Why can't they find somewhere else to show sodding sport instead of disrupting normal programmes?

I'm getting bored with it now.

I'm not getting bored with him.

I'm not getting bored with it, I love it and like the fact that a lot of the characters are developed and have their own story. I love Archi Panjabi as Aisha, I always thought her character more interesting in 'The Good Wife' than the main figures (gone off that series in the last year, the main characters are so smug ).

I've decided to start reading the Shetland books, having been told that the tv series is a good representation of them - I've read most of the 'Vera' books which are by the same author (Ann Cleves), and she too is portrayed well in the tv series, (also on tv at the moment)by Brenda Blethyn, but I find I fall asleep during them sometimes as they can be slow and are on for two hours, as each episode is a complete story.

I didn't hear that there was going to be another 2-week wait. I'm really fed up with the way that sport takes precedence over everything.

I'm not bored with Shetland at all. I think it's a really good story and fabulous acting.

I thought we had taped it. . I would have cussed hubby for taping the wrong program.

It must have been a regional variation as we greatly enjoyed tonight's episode. Won't spoil it for you but don't miss it.

We had Shetland last night (my lips are sealed!) but won't have it next week ... no idea what's next week unless it's football?

I think you'll find it's rugby, but I could be wrong!!!! It's SO annoying when this happens. Everything has to give way to blasted sport. By the time the finale finally comes I for one will have lost the thread. Why can't one of the other BBC channels have their programmes disrupted, or better still take it in turns?!!

We had Shetland last night but it is off next week for Wales v France (Rugby). Very annoyed they have mucked this drama about, why could they not have stuck it on BBC2?
The crazy thing is the rugby match is about an hour and a half long , but the actual rugby programme is on for nearly two hours. Why?
The BBC are needing to get their act together. Ridiculous the way this and Dickensian are mucked about.
The whole schedule should not come to a halt because of rugby and football!

Just watched it on I player. Need a cup of tea and a cake now.

I thought last nights episode about the rape was very sad, well done though.

Well I did have it taped after all and just watched it.. Midlands region.

Won 't spoil it for those who couldn't see it but I thought it was good , well worth making sure you keep up with the story line..

I left it to record on Friday when I was out at the theatre, but when I came back, it hadn't recorded, though other programmes had. I'm hoping to get it on i-Player.
