I've just seen the announcement of a new Death in Paradise spin off, based in the UK - twitter.com/RedPlanetTV/status/1542131650208964609

Whatever happened to DI Humphrey Goodman?🌴

Kris Marshall & Sally Bretton to reunite in #BeyondParadise a new show... which picks up Humphrey & Martha’s story in rural Britain.

From the linked article - "Seeking a quieter life away from the stress of the city, Humphrey has taken a job as Detective Inspector in fiancée Martha’s hometown. However, they soon find that country life is anything but peaceful and Humphrey can’t help but be distracted by the town’s surprisingly high crime rate with a new, and very different, case challenging him each week."

Will anyone else be watching this when it comes to air? I loved Humphrey and Martha together so I hope this is good.

Yes!

I'll give it a go. For me, the attraction of Death in paradise is the location though.

Yes, that's true. Saint Marie is definitely a leading character itself.

I'm guessing the 'country life' angle this spin off is going for may have some similarities to 'Midsomar' - although I guess we wait to see!

I liked Humphrey so I'll definitely give it a go. Martha was a bit of a yawn, though.

I will watch, but a bit sceptical as to how they will replace the local characters from Ste Marie.

Exactly. I watched it for the background!

KangarooKenny · 01/07/2022 15:36

I’ll watch it, thanks .

Midsomer Murders is what worries me a bit!

Riverlee · 01/07/2022 19:28

Yippee!

Tlollj · 01/07/2022 19:34

I’ll be watching. Liked Humphrey second only to Richard. ( still traumatised by his death)
Sounds good

Ooohhhj yes I'll watch. Death in paradise is my guilty pleasure!!!!

The writer of Death is Paradise has written a couple of books - The Marlow Murder Club and Death comes to Marlow ( a bit like Thursday Murder Club books) so wondering if the U.K. series is based on them ?
