Shetland returns to screens for its seventh series tonight (August 10).

Fans of the show can expect to see panicked parents Danny and Rachel report their child missing in the first episode of the new series, according to Radio Times.

DI Perez must dig into the family’s past with the team as they launch a search for Connor.

The seventh series of Shetland will be the final one to feature DI Perez, played by Douglas Henshall.
