This account is very old and very well used. Old comment will be cringe.
White Nights, by Ann Cleeves [Radio 4 Drama]
Dramatised for radio by Iain Finlay MacLeod.
First broadcast: Saturday 02 July 2011
Atmospheric crime drama set in Shetland at midsummer - the time of white nights, when the sun never quite leaves the sky and birds sing at midnight.
The launch of Bella Sinclair's art exhibition, at the Herring House Gallery in the remote hamlet of Biddista, is ruined by the appearance of a distressed stranger, claiming amnesia. The man is later found hanged but local detective Jimmy Perez has a hunch that it's murder not suicide.
When the dead stranger is finally identified, strands of clues point towards a dark secret held deep within the collective memory of the community, one which has brought death to the present.
Cast:
D.I. Jimmy Perez ..... Steven Robertson
Kenny ..... Finlay Welsh
Edith ..... Anne Lacey
Bella ..... Eileen McCallum
Fran ..... Tracy Wiles
D.I. Roy Taylor ..... Robin Laing
Peter ..... Steven McNicoll
Roddy ..... Finn den Hertog

Thank you for uploading this Ann Cleeves - also love her Vera
Is the actor doing Perez the younger, wet behind the ears cop in the television series? Why doesn’t the U.S.have radio dramas like this? So good! Thank you- California
Yes! It's Sandy/ Steven Robertson. The actor is actually from Shetland which is a pretty nice touch. It's a shame they didn't do more Ann Cleeves radio plays
Such a good but sad story, thank-you very much xx
I"m a Kiwi living in Hawai'i and I love the Scottish brogue, probably because I can understand it!. My Scottish neighbour in NZ, Grandma Mangin, would often introduce me as her grandson while giggling (I am Maori) and whisper to me "Dinna fache!" and stare down the disbelievers! As a child I also loved the bagpipes, and still do. I think I'm turning Scot!❤
Thank you, much appreciated, liked and subbed
As a book,I'd never have read this but as a radio play I found it Most Enjoyable! Thank you.😊
You know the
Very enjoyable. Thanks
I really wish we could see this in film!
You can buy the videos of the Shetland series, all five of them.

Hard to understand Scottish accents - poor diction.
Thank you for sharing, very good drama
Thank you so much for the upload, Lilith! 🤗🌺
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Steven Robertson as Jimmy Perez. I'm so used to watching him as Sandy Wilson that it took a few minutes to switch from Sandy to Jimmy.
I'm a scouser from Liverpool and the Detective Inspector has a hint of scouse in the accent he's portraying, does anybody hear it? Great play really enjoyed it!!!
Just subscribed love this is great to listen to in bed thank you 😊👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you so much................
Thanks 👌
Love it
Subscribed. Thanks for this I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to more. X
I thought it sounded like Stephen Robertson playing Perez, it must have felt funny for him playing Sandy Wilson in the TV series as a sort of second in command, you cannot mistake his voice, well well. I also enjoyed this but although I read the book, I do not recall them putting it on TV for some reason
When was this on R4?
Fiona Johnston it was in 2011
Thank you very much, I wonder if they will repeat it.
Enjoyed this story very much .. Thanks for sharing.
Pretty good. You really need to pay attention to all the character names as it gets alil hard to follow. I did have part of it figured out fairly early on but the final conclusion is a bit over the top.
In radio plays they cast people with different accents else it gets confusing, but the islands do have an english twang often.
