That's all from today's Queen's Baton Relay in Shetland. Apologies once again for the large gaps in the video stream. These were caused by problems with mobile phone network coverage.

What a day the baton has had, travelling 128 miles (206km) in bright sunshine. It was transported by aeroplane, horse and carriage, lifeboat and Viking long boat, not to mention by foot, as 99 baton bearers took it around the islands.

Wherever we went we couldn't miss the Vikings, so our picture of day is of Alex Johnson and his motley crew.

End of another day with the baton.

I really sensed that Shetlanders made a huge effort to get to see the baton, particularly people like head teacher Jane Smith and two pupils from Fula Primary School who flew in. Others caught one, sometimes two, ferries.

There's a great atmosphere in Lerwick this evening.

Last to carry the baton on what's been a terrific day in Shetland is Kevin Gray.

Kevin is a successful shooting athlete who has won an array of medals at the Island Games.

Rhoda Polson has volunteered in the Lerwick community for more than 40 years, teaching swimming and lifesaving skills.

We've heard from Elizabeth Atia, press officer for the RNLI lifeboat station in Aith.

Apparently the crew's pagers went off just as the baton was safely transferred to dry land in Brae - its most northerly destination on the whole relay.

Elizabeth says: "A yacht had grounded on a nearby sandbar. Rescue now complete, all safe and well!"

BBC journalist Cameron Buttle tweets, external from Lerwick: "Watch out for baton coverage from Shetland tonight in Reporting Scotland later time of 1930 #bbcbatonrelay #BatonRelay"

A lovely moment there as an emotional Anne Wood took time out from the relay to pose for a picture with her very proud father.

The baton relay visited Aith Junior High School earlier in its journey around Shetland today.

Ingrid Smith emailed this great picture of former pupil Claire Johnston carrying the baton followed by some Primary One pupils.

We've really struggled with the video feed today, so a big thank you to everyone who has shared their pictures with us.

Vicki is chairperson of Shetland's junior netball committee. She has also coached numerous junior teams, including the Shetland under-18 squad. According to those who nominated Vicki, her passion and commitment "play influential roles in helping develop junior netball in Shetland".

The Vikings have brought the baton safely back ashore. Shetland Islands Council tweeted, external this photo of the procession.

"Baton bearer Alex Johnson leads a hearty Viking cheer on the pier at Hays Dock #BatonRelay #ShetlandQBR #shetland," they tweet, external.

You'll notice Alex isn't wearing the standard baton bearer's uniform. We don't imagine anyone was brave enough to ask him to slip on a T-shirt.

The Queen's baton is taking a short jaunt to Victoria Pier on a Viking longboat.

Well, we say longboat. It looks fairly short to be honest.

A procession of cheering Vikings is accompanying the baton to the harbour, ready for a ride in a longboat.

Shetland Police, external tweeted, external this picture of Games mascot Clyde meeting some young fans.

They say: "Clyde is happy to see so many people on this glorious sunny day. Thank you for your support #BatonRelay".

We've missed a lot of action from Shetland today, but you can watch this report for BBC News from Cameron Buttle.

We're back with the relay and we have video coverage. Here's hoping the mobile signal holds out for us.

Ian Davidge was the first baton bearer in this section of the route and he passed the baton to Kenny Groat.

Kenny established Bressay Sports Club in 2003 with the aim of bringing a full-size sports pitch to Bressay. Ten years and countless fundraising events later, his goal was achieved.
