Simon King sets off on an adventure to live on the Shetland Islands with his family through the changing seasons. Simon has travelled the world for 30 years, but his boyhood dream was to visit Shetland. Now he has the chance to film some of the remarkable wildlife and experience the beauty and the wild weather of Britain’s most northerly isles.

Chapter 1:
Simon captures footage of killer whales coming in to kill a seal, an Arctic tern colony attacked by a bonxie, and a shy otter family. Simon, his wife Marguerite and two-year-old daughter Savannah settle into a remote cottage, but the winter weather and winds of over 100mph make life tough for them.

Chapter 2:
Spring arrives in Shetland, bringing with it an influx of wildlife from all over the world. Simon dives in the sea and discovers starfish, dead man’s fingers and moon jellyfish. He also gets very close to a seal. Simon follows the heartrending struggle at a wildlife sanctuary to teach Kirikoo, an injured baby otter, to use her back legs. And with a little help and hindrance from his two-year-old daughter Savannah, he sets up a hide and gives her a lesson in birdwatching.

Chapter 3:
Simon is enjoying the islands at their best, with 19 hours of glorious sunlight, the remarkable ‘simmer dim’ – the Shetland term for the midnight gloaming – and a plethora of wildlife. His expensive high-speed camera breaks, but with a little help from the locals, he manages to get it repaired and uses it to capture some wonderful footage of powerful gannets diving for fish. He also follows an otter family’s poignant separation as the one-year-old cub is pushed away by his mother to lead an independent life.
