Shetland: Scotland’s Wondrous Isles 🏴 Networks: Channel 5, My 5 (UK) Season One, Episode 1 Aired: May 25, 2024 (United Kingdom) 47 min |Travel Nature Documentary | TV Mini-Series (2024 - now) (ENG/SUB ENG) Welcome to The Shetland Islands – an archipelago of wonders, unlike anywhere else in the world. In this series we come ashore in this magical world, where seabirds outnumber people by a factor of many hundreds and where you’re closer to the Arctic Circle than you are to London. We meet native Shetlanders who live according to centuries’ old traditions, feeding themselves at the ‘croft’ farms that have fed the locals for many centuries, or the fishing fleets that have wrenched precious sustenance from the ever-powerful sea. Season 1, Episode 01 – The journey begins on the tiny island of Noss, with wardens Jen and Sally. They are the only residents and live a truly off-grid existence – with no mains water, electricity or gas – and they even grow their own food in case they become stranded by the unpredictable weather. The upside is they have a front row seat to witness some of Shetland’s most spectacular wildlife. #Channel5 #My5 #Travel@britblood #Nature@zdenek1964 #Nature@britblood #Shetland #ScotlandsWondrousIsles
