Death in Paradise (2011–…) watch online

Death in Paradise is a comedy crime television series created by Robert Thorogood, starring Ben Miller (Series 1–3), Kris Marshall (Series 3–6), Ardal O'Hanlon (Series 6–9), Ralf Little (Series 9–13) and Don Gilet (Series 14–present).

The programme is set on the small fictional Caribbean island of Saint Marie. The premise is that a British Detective Inspector is dispatched reluctantly to the island to solve the murder of a policeman, and remains to solve further crimes against his will, in conjunction with the local police. In subsequent seasons further British detectives replace the original, usually with a similar degree of reluctance. The plots combine gentle murder mystery with primarily culture clash comedy.

The show is broadcast on BBC One in the United Kingdom, France 2 in France, PBS in the United States, Prime in New Zealand (with repeats on BBC UKTV), and on Foxtel's BBC First channel, ABC, 9Gem in Australia and repeat episodes on Atreseries in Spain. The series was inspired by a real-life event when Bob Woolmer, the coach of the Pakistan national cricket team, died under suspicious circumstances in Jamaica during the 2007 Cricket World Cup, and British policeman Mark Shields of the Jamaica Constabulary Force led the murder investigation.

Since its debut in 2011, Death in Paradise has enjoyed high viewing figures and a generally positive critical reception, leading to repeated renewals. The show is currently set to air until at least 2028. A spin-off series, Beyond Paradise, starring Marshall's character Humphrey Goodman, began airing in 2023. A second spin-off, Return to Paradise, made for ABC television in Australia and BBC One, debuted in 2024.
