Filming has started on the new series of 'Death in Paradise'.
Ralf Little and Josephine Jobert
The long-running show is currently shooting its tenth series on the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, thereby becoming one of the first BBC single-camera dramas to start filming since the coronavirus lockdown.
Tim Key, the show's executive producer, said: "We are delighted to be able to start filming and can't wait to celebrate our tenth series with our audience."
Ralf Little (Neville Parker), Don Warrington (Selwyn Patterson), Tobi Bakare (JP Hooper) and Elizabeth Bourgine (Catherine Bordey) have all returned to their roles for the new series, while Tahj Miles (Marlon Pryce) has been added to the cast.
Tim has promised that the new series of 'Death in Paradise' will be the "biggest and best" to date.
He explained: "It's a joy to be working with Josephine Jobert again and we think the viewers will love watching her trying to get to grips with Neville. And we are very happy to welcome Tahj Miles to the show. Marlon is going to make real waves once he arrives in Saint Marie.
"We've got some real treats for our long-term viewers as the series progresses - including some major surprises and the possibility of another returning face or two.
"We are determined to make this our biggest and best series yet and can't wait to take our viewers back to Saint Marie in 2021."
Tommy Bulfin, the BBC Commissioning Editor, has also teased what fans can expect from the new season of the show.
He said: "This series is packed-full of captivating cases and unexpected twists, as well as some really great surprises for fans of the show.
"Thanks so much to Red Planet Pictures for working so hard to make it happen."
