Marjolein Robertson was entranced by her father’s storytelling which brought to life the many characters described in Shetland tales.⁠ ⁠ You can listen to Marjolein's retelling of 'Herman, Saxie and da Mermaid', along with three other winter stories via our link in bio.

LAST CHANCE TO win a trip to the real Shetland⁠ ⁠ Last night’s episode of Shetland brought the drama back to our screens, but the real star of the show? The islands themselves.⁠ ⁠ To celebrate our Ann Cleeves in Fair Isle campaign and the return of the TV series, we’ve teamed up with Loganair to give away two return flights to Shetland.⁠ ⁠ Many of the show's iconic exterior scenes are still filmed right here. Now, you can walk the same windswept cliffs, quiet beaches and crofting landscapes that bring the series to life.⁠ ⁠ Enter via our link in bio or comment GIVEAWAY and we'll send you a link!
