Whoop. Finally it is here. I love these paradise programmes

BBC and its upcoming Death in Paradise (www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/death-in-paradise-season-14-release-date-bbc/) spin-off
Return to Paradise, which will whisk viewers away to the sunny shores of Australia.

The story follows DI Mackenzie Clarke (played by Anna Samson), who returns to her small Aussie hometown after years working in London for the Metropolitan Police for the last 6yrs after she fled the town after dumping fiancé Glenn at the alter (heartless woman lol)

She gets a less-than-warm welcome from those she alienated when she moved away, but a murder case that leaves the community stumped could be her pathway to redemption.

Her story will partly revolve around former love Glenn Strong (played by Tai Hara), who she abruptly left behind years ago, breaking his heart – can their relationship be salvaged when she returns?

She also left london under a cloud of suspicion

DI Clarke will be partnered up with Detective Colin Cartwright, played by British actor Lloyd Griffith (Ted Lasso (www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/ted-lasso-season-4-release-date/)), who appears to bring some comic relief, keeping the show firmly on
the quirky side – just like preceding entries in the Paradise family.

The supporting cast also includes Aaron L McGrath and Celia Ireland as Constable Felix Wilkinson and Reggie Rocco respectively, inhabitants of the idyllic, fictional town of Dolphin Cove.

It seems that Return to Paradise won't be skimping on the 'Paradise' element, with most of these images showcasing the stunning beaches and glorious weather of its Australian locale.

This is the second spin off from death in paradise

The first being beyond paradise with Humphrey in Devon

I hope this will be as good as love an easy watching murder and for an hour - 2hrs tax my brain 😂

@Blondeshavemorefun He was the guy running the water station during the race. The one who's daughter had died & he blamed the influencer girl for it

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/12/2024 21:25

The will-they-wont-they relationship is so icky when he's shown in a long term / happy relationship. I mean I know it's fiction obviously but there's something 🤢 about it

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/12/2024 22:23

They will get back together

They will get back together

Hope not!

Howisittheendofsummer24 · 03/12/2024 21:55

It just makes him a giant arsehole who will only let go of a woman if something 'better' comes along. And meanwhile he's having sex with someone who would not consent if she knew he was in love with someone else. I'm over thinking but instinctively I find it ick

diddl · 04/12/2024 06:48

Yes-she left, he's moved on, so leave him alone!

Tough if you regret it!

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/12/2024 19:32

E3 tonight at 8pm

I enjoyed tonight’s episode. I guessed the sister had done it, and actually did wonder whether it was her sitting at the computer.

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/12/2024 21:58

Oh well done

I thought it was the man

OP posts:
InMySpareTime · 07/12/2024 05:53

I guessed that one as soon as sister came out of the massage room. The shot of the phone call was clearly obscuring the face so I figured she must already be dead at that point.

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/12/2024 19:00

Did you guess it was 2 of them tho?

OP posts:
InMySpareTime · 07/12/2024 19:12

Not right at the start as the salon layout wasn't clear at that point, but once it was clear that sis couldn't have got unseen from the phone to the massage room, and with all the lingering shots on the speaker I guessed cake lady had to have a part.
Estate agent could have got away with the camera thing if he had a spare smoke alarm with him. He wasn't a very good perv.

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/12/2024 20:24

I didnt even notice the speaker 🙀😳😂

Quite enjoyed tonight’s episode.

longtompot · 14/12/2024 11:16

We enjoyed it too. Still loving the quirkiness of it all. The lady in the campervan was in Totally Completely Fine which was another good, quirky series.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/12/2024 23:13

Just seen

I immed thought it was the Brother

As when chained be kept calling his name and saying wake up etx seeming to be false knowing he wouldn't wake

If I was watching it live o would have said at 8.05 etx it was him 😂

Tho obv he didn't mean to kill him as pushed him but he knew he would have issues due to being a doc

Wtf is ex trying to put the ring back on her finger

I still think they will get back together or have a snog etx

But yes easy watching and like how she works it out

Don't like her waist coats

I really wanted to like this as I love a cosy murder mystery and anything set in Australia. I really like the boss police lady and her son but I'm afraid I can't stand the woman who's some some sort of volunteer and have had enough of Mackenzie's blank staring expression and stomping about.

Three episodes was enough for me but hope everybody enjoys the remainder of it.

Blondeshavemorefun · 20/12/2024 13:11

E5 tonight

A game of lawn bowls turns j to chaos when a man is killed in daylight

OP posts:
LIZS · 20/12/2024 20:07

Blondeshavemorefun · 20/12/2024 20:10

You beat me. I'm a few mins behind

Is this the last episode? I have found it ok but I'm too irritated by the lead character.
