Series 3 had better have that dog!


If that dog isn't in the station house drooling and staring at PC Wilson driving him crazy next series, it just won't be the same.

That dog is one of the best things in Shetland.

He needs more screen time and better lines!

I have an allergy to dogs. I think you are being too flippant. You do not understand the trauma caused by this affliction!

Seriously? Not sure if you are following a joke with a joke, or not.

If not, then guess my form of hyperbolic humor has been lost in translation....

Animals in shows are often praised and admired, more than the actors, and can create some fun threads. (Jussi in Wallander and Isis in Downton come to mind.)

Guess not. In this case.

I thought that my response was so ridiculous, it was obviously a joke.
Hey ho!

Whew!

Guess there are enough folks on boards who really WOULD posts a message like that that I was afraid I'd offended. LOL

(I love the animal threads. They are the best.)

That final ep when the dog kept panting and staring at PC Wilson laid me out on the floor, I laughed so hard.

reply

Okay, okay, but I really don't like drool in real life. :P

Any news regarding Series 3??

reply

I guess the serious point is that every decent series needs a secondary star...

Columbo's raincoat, Morse's Jaguar, Hamish Macbeth's Wee Jock and so on.

Living, wearable or driveable it doesn't matter but it must be memorable.

Sorry to report that I don't think the dog will be back. He will be starting his own series next year entitled "Drool."


Seriously I like this message board very much but there aren't a lot of laughs here considering the subject. Your post made me laugh out loud (or should I say made me LOL) because I though the very same.

Waaaah! He's not! And nor is his human, Billy. No point watching any more of series 3 then.....
