BritBox has announced that Shetland Season 9 will premiere on December 11, 2024. New episodes will air weekly until the finale on January 15. Previous seasons of Shetland are available to stream on BritBox.

The new season of the acclaimed murder-mystery drama sees Ashley Jensen and Alison O’Donnell reprise their roles as Detectives Ruth Calder and Alison ‘Tosh’ McIntosh.

A double missing persons case blurs the lines between the personal and the professional, as Calder and Tosh are drawn into a labyrinthine investigation. When Tosh’s friend, Annie Bett, goes missing she suspects something is seriously wrong.

Ruth Calder – now living in Shetland – has no time to recover from a life-threatening ordeal of her own, as together they set out in search of Annie and her young son, Noah. They discover accountant Annie is estranged from her husband, Ian, and has been staying with mussel farmer John Harris and his two sons, Patrick and Fergus.

Here’s one mystery Detectives Calder and McIntosh won’t have to solve — when Shetland Season 9 will hit BritBox.

TVLine has learned exclusively that Season 9 of the Scottish murder-mystery drama will premiere Wednesday, Dec. 11 on BritBox, with episodes airing weekly until the finale on Jan. 15, 2025.
