When Death in Paradise debuted in 2011, it was just supposed to be a cute little Ben Miller (Professor T) vehicle in which he played DI Richard Poole, a fish-out-of-water, pale-faced, stuffy white colonialist who crankily hated living in a relaxing paradise. But life imitating art

Most of the time, the BBC and ITV make producing a hit police procedural look easy. Cast a few handsome white men as emotionally troubled mid-level cops, and then force them to confront whatever version of the world you subscribe to, whether it's the AC-12 in
