Yah. One of my fav series is back. Easy watching - nice location and like to guess the murderer. Often wrong. Sometimes right 😂😂

sunday is the 100th episode as well

and someone who was in the first ever episode is back

‘I was lucky enough to be in the very first episode of #DeathInParadise now 12 years have passed & I was delighted to be asked back and appear in the 100th episode alongside the legend that is Don Warrington & a fab cast’, he wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of his family and Don Warrington.

sure was on a Friday night last series so wonder why now prime time on Sunday for bbc but who cares

Here’s a novel thought. Maybe next time they’ll have a couple coming to St Marie.

Just had a thought in response to a post above - Sanjeev Bhaskar was excellent in Unforgotten, and is very good at comedy too. He'd be great in DiP.

RaraRachael · 26/03/2024 13:33

Yes he'd be a good choice, as long as they don't give him any silly quirks as seems to have been the case with most of the others.

Riverlee · 26/03/2024 14:05

They did get rid of Neville’s allergies fairly quickly though.

I was thinking exactly this. How do we make it happen?!

MontalbanoFan · 26/03/2024 14:12

I can’t stand Catherine either! It’s the smouldering flirtatiousness and the knowing looks that rub me up the wrong way.

I don't know. One problem would be that his acting abilities are far in excess of what's usually required.

I agree with you there.

I really like Sanjeev, but it has always been a bit of a ‘rubbish acting expected’ show. I think him as the lead would change the vibe. He’s too good.

MontalbanoFan · 26/03/2024 14:41

Ben Miller was on tv this morning and he said that Miranda Hart would be a great new inspector!

I thought it was strange that Florence left St Marie almost immediately after she arrived back. Oh look....there's my family who I haven't seen for a few years! Bye, I'm off travelling now!Hmm

Her family aren't even from Saint Marie!

After her fiancé was shot, we all said how bizarre it was that none of her family were over for the wedding, and then she left to spend time with them on Guadeloupe or wherever they actually live.

Thankfully as I was on the point of turning off permanently- which I will definitely be doing if Miranda Hart plays any part in it 😫

butterpuffed · 26/03/2024 19:33

Oh God , I hope she's not in the running , I wouldn't watch it , and she'd probably be doing that 4th Wall thing 😱

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 26/03/2024 20:10

I thought she was very good in Call the Midwife though.

InMySpareTime · 26/03/2024 20:17

Richard Ayoade would fit the mould, quirky and male, and still fairly young.

RaraRachael · 26/03/2024 12:35

There was no chemistry whatsoever between Neville and Florence, just as there wasn't between Kris Marshall and any female interest. I don't get it either why they seem obsessed to make romantic connections between the characters.

I really can't stand Catherine. I just find her so annoying and her fashion sense is awful. Couldn't she go off to France and pay her daughter a long visit?

I hated the way the others were all interfering especially the young female detective

Don't like Catherine either

I found Dwayne really irritating as well but at least he drove the motorbike in the end

JaneJeffer · 26/03/2024 20:38

Nope. I was hoping he'd head off on his own! They didn't even kiss at the end Hmm

This has my vote too. I'd leave Miranda Hart out of the equation though - unless as an incidental, one episode guest. 🌹

I had that same thought.

suburburban · 27/03/2024 16:33

Such fun - not

Goatymum · 27/03/2024 17:20

OiGetOff · 25/03/2024 09:32

Quite surprised at the Diane Morgan dislike. I’ve always thought she was considered a brilliant character actor. I couldn’t watch Mandy as the mouth chewy thing annoyed me, but I could see that was the character.

I really like her, anyhow.

Same re the mouth chewing and Mandy - couldn’t bear it!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/03/2024 17:47

Agree no chemistry between Neville and F

Glad no kiss

Wonder who will be the new detective

Catherine is hated in our house, mostly for her meddling. My slightly more twisted wish is that she is the first victim of the next series.

2Rebecca · 27/03/2024 21:16

I'd hate working in St Marie, all the nosiness and meddling. I dislike Miranda Hart. Quirky just means irritating. I think the series is dying anyway, an annoying main character to keep the DIE dept happy will kill it, maybe that's the aim. Beyond death in paradise is cheaper to shoot and they won't get accused of being white saviours.

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 28/03/2024 11:10

We have a "Catherine's right arm watch". Grin

She usually has something on her upper right arm, and I thought it was maybe the actress's preference to cover a scar or something. But this series she's had a thinner wire thing a few times, and then nothing at all in one scene last night.

RaraRachael · 28/03/2024 12:37

The "thing" she had wound around her arm in the final episode was monstrous. I take it it was some sort of jewellery but it looked like a snake crawling up her arm,

A fashion icon she ain't. I agree with a PP about her silly flirtatious way of speaking as if everything she says has some sort of double meaning wink wink
