Shetland Season 10: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on August 15, 2025, 18:00 IST Last updated August 15, 2025, 13:58 IST Alright, Shetland fans, let's talk about Season 10. This BBC crime drama, with its windswept cliffs and twisty mysteries, has us all hooked, and the buzz for the next chapter is unreal. After Season 9 left some folks cheering and others scratching their heads, everyone's dying to know what's next for DI Ruth Calder, Tosh, and the gang. Here's the lowdown on when Season 10 might drop, who's in the cast, and what kind of dark, stormy case awaits in the Shetland Isles. Shetland Season 10 Potential Release Date No official date yet, but let's piece it together like a good detective. The last two seasons hit BBC One in early November, so Season 10 might follow suit, probably landing around October or November 2025. Filming started in March 2025, with cameras rolling in the Shetland Isles by April 13 and scenes also being shot across mainland Scotland. That timeline suggests a late 2025 premiere, perfect for cozy autumn nights. For those across the pond, BritBox usually gets new episodes soon after the U.K. airing. Keep your eyes peeled for teasers or trailers as the year rolls on—BBC loves to drop those closer to the date. Shetland Season 10 Expected Cast The heart of Shetland lies in its tight-knit cast, and Season 10 brings back beloved regulars alongside some exciting new faces. Leading the charge is Ashley Jensen as DI Ruth Calder, who stepped into the spotlight after Douglas Henshall's departure as Jimmy Perez in Season 7. Jensen's portrayal of the prickly yet compelling Calder has won over fans, and her return is a highlight. Alison O'Donnell is back as DI Alison 'Tosh' McIntosh, now a fully-fledged Detective Inspector after her promotion in Season 9. Their evolving friendship and working dynamic promise to add depth to the new season. Joining them are series regulars who keep the Shetland police station humming: Steven Robertson as DC Sandy Wilson, the dependable local officer. Lewis Howden as Sgt Billy McCabe, a steady presence in the team. Anne Kidd as pathologist Cora McLean, unraveling clues from the crime scenes. Angus Miller as Donnie, Tosh's partner, adding personal stakes to the story. Conor McCarry as PC Alex Grant, a newer face in the force. Eubha Akilade as PC Lorna Burns, rounding out the squad. A fresh wave of guest stars will shake things up in the Isles. Samuel Anderson, known for roles in Gavin & Stacey and Amandaland , joins as the new procurator fiscal, Matt Blake, replacing Julie Graham's Rhona Kelly. Other notable additions include: Clive Russell ( The Witcher , Sandman ), who previously appeared in Season 2. Ellie Haddington ( Motherland , Guilt ), bringing her gravitas to the mix. Niall MacGregor ( Line of Duty ), Greg McHugh ( Guilt ), Frances Gray ( Vera ), Louise Brealey ( Such Brave Girls ), Stuart Townsend ( Into The Deep ), Stephen McMillan ( Toxic Town ), Saskia Ashdown ( The Rig ), Lila Rose ( Traces ), Joanne Thomson ( Outlander ), Gabriel Akuwudike ( Screw ), and Leigh Biagi ( The Lost King ). This blend of seasoned actors and rising stars hints at a rich, layered story with plenty of new characters to suspect—or root for. Shetland Season 10 Potential Plot Season 10 takes us to Lunniswick, a tiny, isolated Shetland hamlet where something grim has gone down. Calder and Tosh are called in to investigate the murder of an elderly retired social worker, whose body was left out in the open for days. Sounds chilling, right? The case digs into the victim's past and present, unearthing 'dark secrets and terrible deeds' in this close-knit community. Writer Paul Logue, who's got a knack for weaving emotional depth into crime stories, sets this one against the rugged, haunting Shetland landscape. Directors Andrew Cumming and Ruth Paxton are helming the episodes, so expect that moody, atmospheric vibe Shetland does best. The folks at Silverprint Pictures say this case stands out, even among the show's long history of mysteries. BBC Drama's Lindsay Salt hinted there's 'plenty more' coming, which has us wondering what twists are in store. Based on Ann Cleeves' novels, the story will likely mix personal struggles with the hunt for answers, keeping us glued to the screen.

Researcher touts benefits of oats
She has been described as the Queen of Oats. Canadian professor Susan Tosh, who has been researching oats in Canada for the past 20 years, has been extolling the virtue of the cereal during her first visit to the South. After 10 years teaching at the University of Ottawa, she retired as the director of the School of Nutrition Sciences in July last year. She travelled to New Zealand for the first time to give a public lecture at the University of Otago. Only 2.6% of the cereals consumed in New Zealand were oats and she believed that was due to a knowledge gap about the health advantages of eating oats. If 10% of the wheat products in food could be replaced with oats, it would have great health benefits. "We need the food industry to be sneaking it into things to make it more available," she said. Oat consumption was 0.4% of the total food supply in New Zealand despite its many health advantages including lowering cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure, which lowers the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. The dietary fibre beta-glucan in oats slows how quickly starches and sugars, such as maple sugar on a bowl of porridge, are absorbed in a bloodstream. If food contained higher levels of beta-glucan, a diner felt fuller for longer, Prof Tosh said. People could gain gut health benefits from eating oats. "It produces short-chain fatty acids to keep the inside skin layer of the colon healthy so you don't get toxins moving into your bloodstream, which can prevent colon cancer," she said. Oat consumption might also improve mental health and reduce the risk of depression and anxiety by maintaining a good balance of hormones, such as serotonin and oxytocin. Other benefits include it being high in fibre, low in sugar and containing about 14% protein, which was more than 90% digestible. "It is way better than wheat in that way and it has the highest levels of certain vitamins and minerals compared to other cereals." Oats had the most calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, riboflavin and thiamin content of any cereal. The starch in oats breaks down slowly so it provides energy for longer than other cereals. Prof Tosh was born and raised on a berry, corn and beef farm in the agricultural city of Guelph, east of Toronto. The six years between obtaining her bachelor's and master's degrees in food science at the University of Guelph were spent working in food safety for bakery giant Canada Bread. "When consumers complained I wrote them a letter and gave them a coupon for a loaf of bread," she said. The weirdest complaint was from a customer who found a pencil baked in their loaf of bread. After completing her master's, she spent three years researching in North Carolina before returning to Guelph to complete a PhD. She then worked as a research scientist for 12 years for government department Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada from 2002. "That's where I started working on oats and figuring out the health benefits it provides"

What Jimmy Thelin can learn from Aberdeen's 'worst team ever'
'Sometimes when you're at a match you cover your eyes because the sun's getting in them,' said Tosh yesterday as he looked ahead to the Scottish Gas Scottish Cup final against Celtic at Hampden on Saturday. 'I think a lot of people are going to be covering their eyes this weekend because they're so scared of how it is going to go and what they are going to see. There have been some devastating, negative results recently. I know that people are concerned.' However, the former St Johnstone, Raith Rovers, Livingston, Falkirk, Gretna and Queen of the South midfielder, who spent an eventful and enjoyable if ultimately unsuccessful season-and-a-half playing for his boyhood heroes at Pittodrie back in the 2000s, doesn't share his fellow supporters' pessimism. He will set off for Glasgow from his home town Kirkcaldy with his son Jordan on Saturday morning believing, not just hoping, that the underdogs are more than capable of pulling off a major upset and denying their opponents both victory and another domestic treble. Read more: Recent results against Brendan Rodgers' side do not, he appreciates, augur well for Jimmy Thelin's team. They have lost their last four encounters with their top flight rivals and have conceded no fewer than 17 goals in the process. Avoiding another humiliating mauling is the most that some of their fans are hoping for just now. Tosh, though, knows from personal experience that great things can be achieved with a positive attitude and the correct gameplan. 'I was a member of what was possibly the worst Aberdeen team ever to turn up at Parkhead back in 2004,' he said. 'We had five teenagers in the side. I was the most experienced outfield player and had to come off after 20 minutes with a calf injury. Celtic had gone 77 games unbeaten at home in all competitions. 'But we beat them 2-1 that day. Then the next time we went back to Parkhead the following season when Jimmy Calderwood was manager we beat them 3-2. Don't get me wrong, there were a helluva lot of other times when we went down there and got a doing. All I'm saying is it's possible.' (Image: SNS Group Alan Harvey) Tosh was also a key player in the Gretna and Queen of the South sides which gave Hearts and Rangers serious scares in memorable Scottish Cup finals in 2006 and 2008 – the former were only beaten in a penalty shootout while the latter lost 3-2 after an epic tussle. 'The FA Cup final in England on Saturday past proves that anything's possible in a one off game,' he said. 'You'd expect Manchester City to beat Crystal Palace quite comfortably, but they didn't. Exactly the same kind of result can happen in the Scottish Cup. 'Queen of the South ran a Rangers team that had played in a European final 10 days earlier close in 2008. Two years before that Gretna to Hearts lost on penalties. But if it hadn't been for Robbie Neilson denying Davie Graham with a last-gasp challenge a third tier team would have won. 'There's been many finals recently when the lesser teams have been given no chance and they've proven to be very close finals. As I say, anything can happen in a one off game.' So how can Aberdeen, who were thrashed 5-1 by a significantly understrength Celtic side in a Premiership game at Pittodrie last Wednesday night, overcome seemingly insurmountable odds and lift the Scottish Cup for the first time since way back in 1990 this weekend? Tosh, who works as a pundit for Red TV and has seen Aberdeen in action regularly this season, feels it is imperative that they go on the offensive in Mount Florida once referee Don Robertson has blown the whistle for the start of the match and give their huge travelling support reason to cheer. Read more: 'There's only one way Aberdeen are going to beat Celtic and it's not by keeping a clean sheet,' he said. 'I honestly think they are going to need to go out and try to score goals. If they try to sit back they will play into their hands because their opponents' attack is the best part of their team. I'd like to see them going out and having a right pop. 'I think most fans would prefer that they did that to sitting in to be honest, even if they lost 5-2. If you're asking people to spend £50 on a ticket of whatever it is, then they deserve for you to have a go. I know the players would prefer to do that as well. 'When I played, there was nothing worse than sitting in, defending in numbers and trying to hit a team on the break. The truth is you felt like you were giving them the ball back to have another go. 'I'm not saying Celtic are weak at the back, but I would say it's the weakest part of their team. I'm not being derogatory about their defenders, but I think their greatest strength is their flair and ability to score goals. Lets face it, they're going to score. So why not go out there and try to score two?' (Image: SNS Group Jeff Holmes) Tosh continued, 'In one game at Pittodrie a couple of seasons ago Celtic had 81 per cent possession. Callum McGregor scored a goal and they won 1-0. Sorry, but that's not football for me. So go down and try and cause an upset. If they do that they have got half a chance. They are quite capable of scoring. 'Topi Keskinen and Oday Dabbagh can do some damage in attack. Shayden Morris can be frustrating, but, on his day, he can give defenders a hard time. Leighton Clarkson does his best work in the latter third. Kevin Nisbet knows where the goals are. So they definitely have the players in that area. It will be interesting to see what Jimmy does on the day. 'But they proved earlier on in the season that they are capable. They were 2-0 down at half-time at Parkhead, came back to draw 2-2 and, to be honest, looked a far better team in the second half. Only a VAR decision cost them victory that day. That's how close they came at the home of the champions. 'They've got to go and show they're Aberdeen, show they're not a lesser team, show that they belong to be there, show that they are still a major force within Scottish football. They can't allow the Scottish Cup final to be a damp squib.'
