Episode 3

Simon is enjoying the islands at their best, with 19 hours of glorious sunlight, the remarkable Simmer Dim - the Shetland word 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.
