This week's television offerings promise a diverse lineup, with Yle Areena set to release new episodes of the popular crime series "Shetland" on Tuesday, July 14. Viewers will once again join Detective Inspector Ruth (played by Ashley Jensen) and Detective Inspector Tosh (Alison O'Donnell) as they tackle new mysteries on the islands.

Beyond the familiar faces of "Shetland," the upcoming schedule includes a variety of new programs. Audiences can anticipate stories featuring skilled artisans, cunning con artists, and profiles of notable figures such as a somewhat awkward duke and a renowned football coach. This eclectic mix suggests a broad appeal, catering to different tastes among viewers.

One of the highlighted new shows is "Game of Wool," a "heartwarming" competition series that celebrates crafting skills. The British-originated show invites amateur enthusiasts to compete in disciplines like cooking, baking, sewing, and pottery, with knitting being the latest addition to its competitive categories. The program is set to premiere on Yle Areena on Tuesday.
