Shetland

9pm, BBC One

The season finale was well done, with plenty of instances where either Tosh (played by Alison O’Donnell) or Ruth (played by Ashley Jensen) have an epiphany and exchange meaningful glances before driving off quickly. As long-held family secrets are revealed and interrogations lead to answers, the final explanation for the crime isn’t particularly memorable, but the two detectives make a strong team that will likely continue.

The Lazarus Project

10pm, Sky Max

The last time we encountered our stubborn police officers, they were aboard a time-traveling aircraft plummeting from the sky. The positive update? They managed to survive (for the most part). The negative update? They have been transported back to a year that was already plagued with time resets. Maybe they would have better luck resolving things if they refrained from interfering with their past selves. – Graeme Virtue
