Thankyou for that video. I've always wanted to visit the Shetland and other Scots islands. Maybe I should.
A friend in the medical profession once told me that in urgent cases, a patient needing helicopter evacuation to hospital is more likely to be flown to Bergen or Stavanger, in Norway, than to the Scottish mainland! They are nearer.

It's a pity the makers of such videos can't edit the subtitles. They are full of spelling and one or two other mistakes, not only American spellings. These are some:
"Lurwic" ??? Lurich?? Lurwick??
It's Lerwick And has a harbour, not a harbor.
There was no "British Government" in the 15C.
Foula, not "Fowler". Nor "Fer".
Skua, not "Skewer" (sea-bird species)
Guisers, not "Geysers"!
I think it's "heim", (pron. 'hime') the Scandinavian word this video could not render beyond the letter 'h'.
