Beyond Paradise: Release date, cast, trailer and how to watch Death in Paradise spin-off series

Death in Paradise spin-off series Beyond Paradise will air on our screens soon as DI Humphrey Goodman returns to solve murder mysteries across rural England

Beyond Paradise, a spin-off series of popular BBC show Death In Paradise, will make its way onto our screens soon. The spin-off will follow DI Humphrey Goodman, played by Kris Marshall, as he moves to a new area with his fiancée Martha Lloyd (played by Sally Bretton) to solve murder mysteries.

The couple’s nail-biting will-they-won’t-they romance reached its emotional finale in Saint Marie in 2017. Viewers were delighted when DI Goodman took control of his destiny and followed Martha back to London to declare his undying love for her.

A new adventure awaits the couple as Beyond Paradise will see them arriving in Shipton Abbott, Martha’s hometown near the Devonshire coast, having left London. As they embark on their new life whilst temporarily living with Martha’s mum Anne Lloyd (Barbara Flynn), the couple are quickly thrown in at the deep end as Martha sets out to pursue her dream of running her own restaurant and Humphrey joins the local police force.

Each week, the police force will face a new crime with a unique puzzle at its heart. The not-so-sleepy town of Shipton Abbott will be rocked by an entire family disappearing without a trace, a woman claiming she was attacked by a suspect from the 17th century, the robbery of a highly prized painting and many more mind-boggling crimes.
