SHETLAND, SEASON 9: BritBox

I miss Jimmy Perez on Shetland. Nevertheless, I'm still watching the series. And, here's the latest news! Shetland, Season 9, will premiere on Britbox on December 11. There will be one episode a week through January 15, 2025. Ashley Jensen and Alison O'Donnell return as Detectives Ruth Calder and Alison ‘Tosh’ McIntosh. 

Season 9 features a double missing person’s case that “blurs the lines between the personal and the professional, as Calder and Tosh are drawn into a labyrinthine investigation,” the official synopsis tells us. “When Tosh’s friend, Annie Bett (Sarah MacGillivray), goes missing, Ruth Calder — now living in Shetland — has no time to recover from a life-threatening ordeal of her own, and instead teams with Tosh to search for Annie and her young son, Noah (Jacob Ferguson).

Previous seasons of Shetland are available to stream on BritBox. Of course, you can read the Shetland mystery series by Ann Cleeves. It's a great series. 

CANDICE RENOIR: SEASON 9 NEWS!

At last! Candice Renoir, Season 9: July 22 to AcornTV. 10 Episodes. (In French with subtitles) I love this show. 

Candice has been hiding Antoine's amnesia, but she's been caught out. She's no longer allowed to take part in any investigations and is told to either end her relationship with Antoine or be transferred to another part of France. 

Seasons 1-8 are still available on AcornTV.
