The episode DOES have subtitles! Reboot your device

Like @jjbordner, I can't watch Shetland without captions. Some British shows I can handle, but not this one. When I first started watching episode 6.4 there were no captions. Rats! No way was I going to be able to follow. I rebooted my Roku TV and the captions were still not there. But when I came back the next day, yes! There they were! So don't give up,

Having said that, even with the captions on, I'm having a very hard time following this season. I may have to go back and watch all the episodes again. It seems to be moving more slowly than usual and there are lots more characters and subplots than usual. For such a small island with few people, there are many complications... I love the series anyway-- the scenery alone is stunning. I like the small police force, and I love Jimmy Perez.

I will, of course, watch the next two episodes and all future ones even if I'm pretty clueless about the plot. Binge-watching has ruined my ability to keep a plot in mind from one week to the next.

Heartwrenching

Warning: Spoilers
I'm enjoying this season although I still think it is an episode or two too long. The scene in the police station when Craiggen realized he shot his son was truly heart breaking. He is such a good actor. The flashbacks were very touching and explained his PTSD very well.

As for Donna, she is a piece of work. I dont think I could tell the sister of the girl I murdered the things that she said. It seemed rather cold hearted. Leave it to good old Duncan to continue to make poor decisions.

Poor Jimmy is going through a lot but seems to handle it all so well. He sure has a strong constitution. I dont really like his new boss very much (forgot her name). She doesn't seem to be a very good leader in my opinion but then again, Jimmy doesn't need much direction.

Tosh's new beau is a cutie pie!
