Ashley Jensen appeared on This Morning on Wednesday morning ahead of her debut on crime drama Shetland.
Shetland's newest addition Ashley Jensen appeared on ITV's This Morning on Wednesday to promote the new season of the crime show.
She told Rylan and Josie Gibson: "You never go to what's on your doorstep, and I sometimes think it takes you to go away and travel the world a bit and see other places and then come back and go, this is amazing.The Ugly Betty favourite will take over the lead role and a fresh new chapter in the show.
Ashley said: "Shetland is one of those places that I never, ever thought I would go or get a chance to work there. It was such a privilege to be there and rendered me speechless when I stepped off that wee plane the first time. There were Shetland ponies and puffins – it’s got its own identity which is quite exhilarating actually."
