OK it's always been easy watching but it has hit a new low
Jack, well he can only act himself can't he. He can't pull off the geeky, clever nerd. The grieving husband act his cringing
Ruby, the girlfriend they are beyond terrible

Agree the rashes itching constant mentions of his allergies are annoying

Maybe, as he settles into life on the island, the de-stressing will cure his "allergies".

I'm finding the rash thing annoying because it presents people with allergies as just annoying
Sun doesn't work well for me. I burn easily and everything bites me. I react badly to bites and have ended up in hospital thanks to mosquitoe bites
I agree, we will see a miraculous recovery from his allergies Confused

Just went on iPlayer to find the last episode and it is season 9??? Shock can't believe how long I've been watching it for (no wonder the quality is starting to drop off - can't think of many programs that keep the same quality for more than a few seasons). Tempted to go back and rewatch series 1 now...

This is the character, some of you are confusing for JP. I did it too! His wife had a baby, confusingly called Rosie...

I've just rewatched the episode with the baby's birth. The whole team were indeed on the verandah outside the bedroom window - including Catherine, the commissioner and the random other English detective on the island for one case... Can you imagine the AIBU from Fidel's wife??? Or from the other English detective for that matter (who despite being portrayed as similar to DI Poole did not seem embarrassed to be at the birth of the baby of someone he had never met)

"AIBU to be annoyed that all my DH's work colleagues followed him home when they heard I was in labour? Even his bosses boss, his colleague's mum, and some random guy seconded to the team for a day turned up. Instead of telling them to f off, he let them hang around on the verandah until dd was born..."

Grin AIBU to complain that my husband took the baby from me immediately after giving birth so his boss could hold her
The boss doesn't even like babies

So I finally caught up with season 8 and 9, I enjoyed it, quite like Ralf Little's character

Never watched DiP before, but have been watching an episode each day with dd(12) over the last few weeks, and we love it! It's great family viewing, something dd and I can enjoy together with no overt violence/sex, and has been welcome escapism from the current circumstances (I've even googled holidays in Guadaloupe Blush). We've just reached the end of the Kris Marshall years, and I was so sorry to see him go as I thought he was great, and don't rate Ardal in the role at all, for all the reasons pp have said above. DD doesn't have any preconceptions of him, so is trying to convince me he's just Humphrey with an Irish accent!

Love Dwayne and JP; was sorry to see Camille go but Florence has grown on me. Wish Catherine would mention her occasionally though - in rl they'd be asking how she's getting on. Enjoy seeing all the familiar actors who pop up as the suspects each week - it must be a great gig for them, getting to film over in Guadaloupe - better than an episode of Holby City!
