Beyond Paradise Season 4: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on June 23, 2025, 20:00 IST Last updated June 23, 2025, 16:54 IST
Fans can't stop buzzing about Beyond Paradise Season 4 after Season 3's heartfelt finale in May 2025. This Death in Paradise spin-off keeps winning hearts with its oddball mysteries, tight-knit crew, and those lush Cornwall views. No official word from the BBC yet, but plenty of clues point to what's next. Here's the lowdown on when Season 4 might land, who's likely back, and what stories could unfold in Shipton Abbott. Is Beyond Paradise Season 4 Happening?
The BBC hasn't spilled the beans on Season 4, but odds look good. Season 3 pulled in over 5 million viewers for its opener, a solid win. Producer Tim Key called it their 'strongest' run yet, and Zahra Ahmadi (DS Esther Williams) tossed out a cheeky hope for '14 seasons' with all the character potential left to mine. With Death in Paradise locked for a 15th season and Return to Paradise off and running, dropping Beyond Paradise would be a head-scratcher. Expect a green light soon, likely with a spring 2026 slot, tailing Death in Paradise . When Could Beyond Paradise Season 4 Hit Our Screens?
No confirmed date, but past seasons give a hint: Season 1 kicked off February 24, 2023.
Season 2 arrived March 22, 2024.
Season 3 landed March 28, 2025.
That points to March or April 2026 for Season 4. A Christmas special might pop up in December 2025, like in years past. Season 3 filmed from August 2024 and hit screens seven months later, so production could start summer 2025 for a spring launch. UK viewers will catch it on BBC One or iPlayer. For folks across the pond, BritBox or Amazon Prime should have episodes by April 2026. Who's Coming Back for Beyond Paradise Season 4?
No cast announcements yet, but the Shipton Abbott crew is practically family at this point. Here's who we bet we'll see, based on Season 3's ending (spoiler alert for those not caught up): Kris Marshall as Humphrey Goodman
as Humphrey Goodman Sally Bretton as Martha Lloyd
as Martha Lloyd Zahra Ahmadi as Esther Williams
as Esther Williams Dylan Llewellyn as Kelby Hartford
as Kelby Hartford Felicity Montagu as Margo Martins
as Margo Martins Barbara Flynn as Anne Lloyd
as Anne Lloyd Jamie Bamber as Archie Hughes
as Archie Hughes Melina Sinadinou as Zoe Williams
as Zoe Williams Jade Harrison as CS Charlie Woods
as CS Charlie Woods Bella Rei Blue Stevenson as Rosie What's the Plot for Beyond Paradise Season 4?
Season 3 left us with plenty to chew on (spoilers ahead). Here's what might unfold:
Humphrey and Martha's Next Chapter: Their fostering journey hit some bumps, but they're solid as ever. Season 4 could show them navigating life with Rosie or new foster kids, juggling love and work. Sally Bretton says fans want their 'fun, loving' dynamic, not soap opera drama, so expect warm fuzzies with a side of chaos.
Archie's Drama: Martha's ex caused a stir in Season 3. Will he keep meddling, or will his story wrap up? Some fans think Humphrey's quirky enough without this love triangle.
Esther's Love Life: A surprise encounter in Season 3 hinted at her past. We might learn more about her late husband or Zoe's dad.
Kelby's Rise: The young PC's finding his feet, making unlikely pals. Maybe he'll take on bigger cases or face personal hurdles.
Fresh Cases: Beyond Paradise keeps murders light, focusing on oddball crimes like poisonings or rural feuds. Season 4 will likely serve up more clever whodunits with that laugh-cry-laugh vibe Tim Key loves.

BBC Cuts Live Feed to Irish Trio Kneecap at Glastonbury After Chants of: 'F— Keir Starmer'
The BBC cut Irish trio Kneecap from the broadcaster's live coverage of the Glastonbury music festival Saturday after the group began chanting 'F–k Keir Starmer,' a reference to the British Prime Minister, during their set. The news was shared but Puck News reporter Julia Alexander, who noted on X, 'Fascinating media story. BBC cuts live stream, says VOD will be available (which of course allows for edits). Comes just a couple of days after the UK's current culture minister suggested she didn't want to see it, while noting she couldn't exert control one way or another.' As Alexander also noted, 'That move then leads people to stream on TikTok, picking up hundreds of thousands of views (likely even more).' Fascinating media story.

Comes just a couple of days after the UK's current culture minister suggested she didn't want to see it, while noting she couldn't exert control one way or another. Big — julia alexander (@loudmouthjulia) June 28, 2025 The broadcaster also came under fire after musical act Bob Vylan led the crowd, many of whom were waving Palestinian flags, in chants of 'death to the IDF,' the Telegraph reported. Bob Vylan performed directly ahead of Kneecap. 'We strongly condemn the threatening comments made by Bob Vylan at Glastonbury,' said a spokesperson for Lisa Nandy, the culture secretary for the U.K. 'The Culture Secretary has spoken to the BBC director-general to seek an urgent explanation about what due diligence it carried out ahead of the Bob Vylan performance, and welcomes the decision not to re-broadcast it on BBC iPlayer.' The Guardian reported Kneecap kicked off the group's set by chanting, 'F–k Keir Starmer!' after Starmer said June 21 that allowing the band to perform at the festival is 'not appropriate.' In November, the group's Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, who is also known as Mo Chara, was charged with a terror-related offense after holding a Hezbollah at a London show. 'We understand colonialism and we understand how important it is to support each other internationally,' said Ó hAnnaidh, who was clad in a Palestinian keffiyeh. Of the more than 200 Palestinian flags being waved in the crowd, he added, 'The BBC editor is going to have some job.'
