Welcome to the Shetland Islands, Scotland.

Let's go. Come on. No, seriously. Let's go.

我們走走吧不，說真的。我們走吧 Let's go.

Welcome back to Vagabrothers, and welcome to the capital of Scotland, Edinburgh.

歡迎回到 Vagabrothers，歡迎來到蘇格蘭首府愛丁堡。

But we're not sticking around the city for long.

但我們不會在這座城市逗留太久。

We've been invited here by VisitScotland to explore one of the most remote corners of this beautiful country, the northernmost section of the

應蘇格蘭旅遊局的邀請，我們來到這裡，探索這個美麗國家最偏遠的角落之一--蘇格蘭最北端的地區。

每年冬天，設得蘭群島的當地人都會

Viking battle gear and burn down a Viking longship.

維京人的戰鬥裝備，並燒燬一艘維京長船。

Our mission in this series is to find out why. But getting there is not going to be easy. We've got a plane to catch, a train to catch, and a ferry.

我們在本系列中的任務就是找出原因。但到達那裡並不容易。我們要趕飛機、火車和渡輪。

You're watching Vagabrothers, and this is the Shetland Islands.

您正在收看的是《流浪兄弟》，這裡是設得蘭群島。

We've just arrived to the Shetland Islands.

Skatness, an Iron Age village that they found while expanding the airstrip in the 1970s.

斯卡特尼斯（Skatness），這是一個鐵器時代的村莊，是他們在 20 世紀 70 年代擴建簡易機場時發現的。

But the Shetland Islands have been inhabited since Neolithic times, almost 6,000 years.

但設得蘭群島自新石器時代起就有人居住，距今已有近 6000 年的歷史。

And this village, Old Skatness, is an Iron Age village from almost 2,000 years ago.

而這個名叫 "Old Skatness "的村莊是一個鐵器時代的村莊，距今已有近 2000 年的歷史。

We're now in a roundhouse, which is a stone, circular building typical of the Iron Age.

我們現在所處的位置是一座圓屋，它是鐵器時代典型的石制圓形建築。

Because there were no trees on these islands, the locals built entirely in stone, which is why there are so many ruins around the Shetland Islands.

由於島上沒有樹木，當地人完全用石頭建造房屋，是以設得蘭群島周圍有許多遺蹟。

At the center of one of these villages would be a brock, which is a circular stone tower found only in Scotland.

在這些村莊的中心會有一個布洛克（brock），這是一種僅在蘇格蘭發現的圓形石塔。

The one here is missing a corner because they literally cut through it when they were building the road to the airport.

這裡的這個缺了一個角，因為在修建通往機場的道路時，他們真的把它鑿穿了。

Some of the earliest known settlers here were the Picts, who were scattered across all of Scotland.

這裡已知最早的一些定居者是皮克特人，他們分散在整個蘇格蘭。

They would have settled the southern part of the island because there was good farm ground and very good fishing.

他們會在島的南部定居，因為那裡有好的農田和非常好的漁場。

They didn't leave behind too many clues, though, other than these buildings and some drawings known as Pictographs.

不過，除了這些建築和一些被稱為 Pictographs 的圖畫之外，他們並沒有留下太多線索。

Things were going to change in a big way.

So we're just down the road now at Jarlshof, one of the premier archaeological discoveries of the entire British Isles.

我們現在就在賈爾肖夫，這是整個不列顛群島最重要的考古發現之一。

This was discovered about 150 years ago thanks to wind erosion, which is really not that hard to imagine.

這是在大約 150 年前發現的，這要歸功於風的侵蝕，其實這並不難想象。

But we're surrounded by 5,000 years of history from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age, Iron Age and the Vikings.

但我們周圍有 5000 年的歷史，從新石器時代到青銅時代、鐵器時代和維京人。

We're going to hold off on going into Viking history until the next episode about Up Ellia, but you can just see how humbling it is to be surrounded by such amazingly preserved ruins that show so much of human history.

我們將在下一集關於 "上埃利亞 "的節目中再介紹維京人的歷史，但你可以看到，被保存如此完好的遺蹟所包圍是多麼令人慚愧，這些遺蹟展示瞭如此多的人類歷史。

Gents and ladies, we've made it to the northernmost fish and chips shop in the United Kingdom, and it was voted one of the best, if not the best, in the United Kingdom.

先生們，女士們，我們來到了英國最北端的炸魚薯條店，它被評為英國最好的，甚至是最棒的炸魚薯條店之一。

Seafood up here is really good, and fishing is a big part of the culture.

這裡的海鮮非常好吃，捕魚是當地文化的重要組成部分。

After the Viking times, there was a bunch of trading with Europe, and when that fell off, the locals resorted to fishing for cod and haddock, which are the two fish most commonly used in fish and chips.

維京時代之後，與歐洲有了大量貿易往來，貿易衰落後，當地人便開始捕撈鱈魚和黑線鱈，這兩種魚是炸魚和薯條中最常用的魚類。

We're going to go inside, get some lunch, and try out the local seafood here in the Shetland Islands at Frankie's Fish and Chips. Let's go.

我們要進去吃點午餐，在弗蘭基炸魚薯條店品嚐設得蘭群島的當地海鮮。出發吧

It's lunch time here at Frankie's Fish and Chips, and we have a little bit of everything.

現在是弗蘭基炸魚薯條店的午餐時間，我們什麼都有。

We've got some pan-fried scallops in a cream sauce.

We have local mussels in this beautiful white wine reduction.

我們用在地貽貝配以白葡萄酒醬汁。

And then we have their world-famous, number one in the UK, fish and chips, a nice big piece of haddock, and some chips and tartar sauce.

然後是聞名世界的英國第一炸魚薯條，一大塊黑線鱈魚，一些薯條和塔塔醬。

All right, ladies and gents, we have just arrived to

好了，女士們先生們，我們剛剛抵達

There's a little thin spigot of sand that connects the isle to the main island here, and it used to be inhabited by a monastery or a little hermitage, which is why it's called

這裡有一個細細的沙嘴將小島與主島連接起來，島上曾經居住著一座修道院或小隱士庵，是以被稱為 "小隱士庵"。

They actually found a little treasure hoard back there, back in the day, and the story goes that potentially one of the monks living in the hermitage hid the little treasure trove from the Vikings and then didn't come back to collect it, which kind of means they might have killed it.

實際上，當年他們在那裡發現了一個小寶庫，據說可能是住在隱修院的一位僧侶把小寶庫藏了起來，躲過了維京人的襲擊，但後來沒有回來取，這就意味著他們可能已經把它殺死了。

I've been blown away by the scenery here.

Arctic Circle, so the closest place to us is the Faroe Islands.

北極圈，所以離我們最近的地方是法羅群島。

About 15 are inhabited. The population is not huge, so we just have these giant, unspoiled landscapes.

大約有 15 個地方有人居住。人口並不多，所以我們只有這些巨大的、未受破壞的景觀。

You can just see in the houses and the way that there's fjords that this has a heavy influence from Norway. We're closer to Bergen than we are to Edinburgh.

你可以從這裡的房屋和峽灣看出，這裡深受挪威的影響。我們離卑爾根比離愛丁堡更近。

It's gorgeous. There's not a lot of people here, so the next couple of days we're going to go explore all the islands and make our way as far up as we can to the north.

太美了這裡的人不多，所以接下來的幾天，我們要去探索所有的島嶼，儘可能往北走。

We're not going to go to 100 islands, but we're going to do our best to see what we can of this beautiful place while we're here.

我們不會去 100 個島嶼，但我們會盡我們所能，在我們逗留期間看看這個美麗的地方。

It is a beautiful, clear, sunny morning here in the Shetland Islands, and behind us is a ferry.

這是設得蘭群島一個美麗、晴朗、陽光明媚的早晨，我們身後是一艘渡輪。

As you know, there are 100 islands in the Shetland Islands, and 15 are inhabited.

眾所周知，設得蘭群島有 100 個島嶼，其中 15 個有人居住。

We're making our way up all the way to the northernmost one,

我們正一路向最北邊的那座山進發、

Unst. That is going to be one of the most beautiful parts of the island. It has wildlife, it has heritage, and it has the northernmost brewery and distillery in the United Kingdom.

恩斯特那將是島上最美麗的地方之一。這裡有野生動物，有文化遺產，還有英國最北端的啤酒廠和釀酒廠。

But to get there, we're going to have to take two ferries and do a bit of a road trip.

但要到達那裡，我們必須乘坐兩艘渡輪，還要進行一段公路旅行。

準備好了嗎？我準備好了開始吧

Definitely the best weather so far on the trip.

這絕對是此行迄今為止最好的天氣。

We've made it to the northernmost point in Scotland.

It's actually just over the hill on some island, but this is about as close as we can get, and I'm happy with it. It's a beautiful spot, which technically makes it the northernmost point in the United Kingdom.

實際上，它就在山那邊的某個島上，但這已經是我們能到達的最接近的地方了，我對此很滿意。這是一個美麗的地方，嚴格來說，它是英國的最北端。

We're surrounded by a couple of sheep, but there's not much out here.

我們周圍有幾隻羊，但外面沒什麼東西。

It's been quite the journey, starting from Edinburgh, making our way all the way across Scotland and up here, and then all the way to the northernmost tip of the Shetland Islands.

我們從愛丁堡出發，一路穿越蘇格蘭，來到這裡，然後一直到達設得蘭群島的最北端。

Behind us we have this huge, almost fjord, and at the base of it we've got the sun setting.

我們身後是巨大的峽灣，峽灣底部是夕陽西下。

It's a dry day, and we're really just glad to be here.

今天天氣乾燥，我們很高興能來到這裡。
