Death in Paradise spinoff Return to Paradise series 2 starts on the BBC later this month
Via the show’s Faceb00k page, we learn the second spin-off from Death in Paradise will hit our screens on October 31, at 8 pm. We don’t know if the Halloween slot is relevant to the first episode. This will allow the show go complete its run ahead of Christmas and the various specials for both Death in Paradise and Beyond Paradise. We’d still like to dream of a Christmas Special for Return as well, but nothing has been heard.
What is the second series about?
As we reported with the first look pictures:
…the 6×60′ series sees Detective Sergeant Mackenzie Clarke (Anna Samson) still trapped in her hometown of Dolphin Cove to solve more perplexing cases, while grappling with the end-of-series-one bombshell that her ex-fiancé, Glenn (Tai Hara), still has feelings for her.
The team contend with even more perplexing cases this series, including the chemical poisoning of a man alone at sea, alongside having to deal with larger-than-life characters like a troublesome rock band who fall under suspicion when one of their members turns up dead.
Beyond her detective duties, Mackenzie is forced to face Glenn’s shocking confession that he still has feelings for her, despite his impending wedding to Daisy (Andrea Demetriades), complicating her own feelings toward him even further. Meanwhile, the unexpected arrival of Colin’s (Lloyd Griffith) old friends from back home starts to crack the mystery behind his decision to leave everything behind and build a new life in the tight-knit community of Dolphin Cove.
We’ll let you know when we spot a trailer.
