But the actor is swapping the Scottish isles for the Spanish heat in Netflix’s latest thriller Who Is Erin Carter?.The 57-year-old stars in the new seven-parter, which follows British substitute teacher Erin (played by Swedish actress Evin Ahmad) living in Barcelona with her devoted husband and a young daughter.
But when Erin is caught in a violent robbery and recognised by one of the assailants, dark secrets from her past threaten the new life she’s built for herself.
Who is Erin Carter? marks Douglas’s first major role since quitting Shetland last year and while spending four months filming in the Spanish city was a highlight, he admits that he underestimated just how hot it would be. “I didn’t keep in mind that I came from shooting in Shetland to suddenly being in the middle of Barcelona in the summer working in 42 degrees with humidity,” he says. “And you’re filming indoors without air conditioning because otherwise the sound department would pick it up. “I was wearing a suit and given my Scottish complexion, I was afraid at some point I was going to melt into a little puddle on the floor!
