Episode description

Rhianna Pratchett explores the tale of a mysterious wolf-like creature in Shetland.

This mythical beast is not all it might, at first, seem to be. Rhianna digs into the story and finds out what it could reveal about folklore - and ourselves - in the 21st century and what the future might hold for mythical creatures.

The fantasy writer concludes her trek across an enchanted British Isles to discover mythical creatures that lurk in all corners of the land.

Rhianna is out to uncover what they can tell us about our history, our world and our lives today.
