Closures will remain from 8am to 8.30pm, as filming continues for series eight. The murder mystery drama will have After Life's Ashley Jensen as the new lead - as they kick off filming in various locations around Scotland.

The series, which will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, has no official release date but is being teased as being released later this year.

Season eight will see Ashley taking over duties from previous detective lead, Douglas Henshall. Douglas, known for his role as DI Jimmy Perez, said farewell to Shetland in season 7.

Fellow stars, Phyllis Logan (Guilt), Jamie Sives (Guilt), Dawn Steele (Granite Harbour), Don Gilet (Sherwood), Ann Louise Ross (River City) and Lorraine McIntosh (Outlander) will all feature in the upcoming series.
