'Beyond Paradise' Celebrates Red Nose Day & Releases a Season 3 Trailer
The BBC has finally announced the return date for Beyond Paradise, the successful spinoff series of Death in Paradise, where former St. Marie detective DI Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) solves crimes much closer to home in Shipton Abbott in Devon, where his partner-in-life Martha Lloyd (Sally Bretton) hails from. After the new series established it was a hit in Season 1, the BBC and BritBox, who co-produce Beyond Paradise, started scheduling the shows to run back-to-back, with Death in Paradise keeping its usual wintertime berth and Beyond Paradise arriving in the spring a week or two after the season finale.
The schedule is working, because both networks are doing it again. Death in Paradise Season 14 just concluded on the BBC on March 7, and will wrap up on BritBox in a week or so on March 19, 2025. Then Beyond Paradise will arrive at the end of March in the U.K. and follow a few weeks later on BritBox. The trailer for the new season is below.
Beyond Paradise Season 3 will see Marshall and Bretton return alongside the usual suspects of Barbara Flynn (The Durrells in Corfu), Zahra Ahmadi (The Beast Must Die), Dylan Llewellyn (Derry Girls), Felicity Montagu (Tom Jones), and Jade Harrison (The Midwich Cuckoos). Supporting cast includes Chris Jenks (Karen Pirie), Jamie Bamber (Cannes Confidential), Eva Feiler (The Crown), Amalia Vitale (Big Mood), Chizzy Akudolu (Best Interests), and no-longer-a-newcomer Melina Sinadinou. Bella Rei Blue Stevenson will join the cast as Rosie, the new foster kid in the Goodman-Lloyd Household, plus as always, there will be a host of guest stars showing up every week.
