BBC Death in Paradise's 'favourite' detective set to join spin-off as star drops clue
Death in Paradise favourite Kris Marshall has teased a stint in the show's Australian spin-off Kris Marshall, famed for his role in Death in Paradise, has expressed his willingness to make a cameo in the show's Aussie spin-off, Return to Paradise. Kris stepped into Ben Miller's shoes as the lead sleuth when Ben's character, Richard Poole, met his untimely demise. He portrayed Detective Humphrey Goodman until he left the series at the end of season six, choosing to chase his romance with Martha Lloyd (portrayed by Sally Bretton) back to London. Their romantic tale didn't end there; it carried on in the Death in Paradise spin-off, Beyond Paradise, where they relocated to Devon to be closer to Martha's mother. Despite being content with his current role in Beyond Paradise, Kris hasn't ruled out a potential appearance in Return to Paradise, which features its first female protagonist and has been greenlit for a second run. Anna Samson plays the lead as Mackenzie Clarke, the spin-off's inaugural female detective, reports the Express. Chatting with Woman's Day Magazine about the possibility of joining the Australian venture, Kris remarked, "In the future, I'm definitely not ruling it out, no." He teased: "Never say never." Should Kris join the cast, he wouldn't be the first Death in Paradise detective to cross over, as Ardal O'Hanlon graced the first series of the spin-off. Ardal returned as Detective Jack Mooney, taking on the role of Mackenzie's superior from London, and is rumoured to be making a comeback for the second series of the Aussie drama. The worlds of Death in Paradise and Beyond Paradise have intertwined previously. In the first series of Beyond Paradise, fans were treated to Humphrey Goodman's return to the Caribbean alongside Martha. Viewers were ecstatic to witness the inaugural meeting between Humphrey and Detective Neville Parker. While showrunners haven't confirmed another crossover, with production for Return to Paradise in full swing, the prospect of Humphrey Goodman making an appearance is tantalising. Kris Marshall's recent jaunt to Australia has sparked speculation among fans that he might pop up in Return to Paradise. A fan speculated on a Facebook fan page: "I wonder what Humph's doing here in Australia? Perhaps a Return to Paradise cameo." Another enthusiast responded: "That would be spectacularly awesome - DI Goodman in Return to Paradise - with DI Mooney - hope so!". A third chimed in: "Yes, my favourite detective, this needs to happen." For those eager to catch up, Death in Paradise is available for streaming on BBC iPlayer.

Some took particular issue with the groom for his ''disrespectful'' choice of words. ''Why the foul language?'' one wondered. However, many saw the funny side as they agreed with the Aussie entrepreneur, with one saying: ''She absolutely does look stunning. Valid as f***. Congratulations.'' Why it's time to ditch wedding favours once and for all By Josie Griffiths, Deputy Digital Fabulous Editor and bride-to-be Josie Griffiths said: When was the last time you spotted something in a shop window or browsed past it online and thought 'that would be the perfect gift for 120 of my closest friends, work colleagues, relatives and boyfriend's mate's partners I barely know'? I'll tell you when, never, because there is NO universal gift everyone is going to love - unless you want to bankrupt yourself buying Rolexes and Tiffany jewellery, and even then they wouldn't be to everyone's taste. So why do brides still pile the stress (and expense) of wedding favours on top of everything else we have to organise? I've been to dozens of weddings over the past five years so when I got engaged, I already had a mental list of dos and don'ts for my own big day, and ditching wedding favours was firmly on it. The cost of buying an individual present for everyone coming is huge, meaning many couples try and keep it in the under-a-fiver category. But the reality is no-one wants a cheap, ill-thought-out keepsake - they'd probably rather one more free drink from the bar. It's not only that, wedding handbags are notoriously small, with no room to stuff an unexpected gift in, and catering waiters have a bad habit of whisking away the wedding favours when they're clearing the coffee mug off the tables. I bet none of my guests will even notice the lack of random gift on their dining table. If you really hate the idea of not buying something for your guests, charity donations are always a nice gesture. But the last thing your friends and family need is more random tat cluttering up their homes - so it's time to save them the guilt of binning your Etsy-bought keyring. ''When he said that in front of everyone, I started laughing but I know that he loves you,'' another shared. ''Can't get more Aussie than this - and yes she does look insane,'' one said, laughing as she agreed with how gorgeous the bride looked. ''He's not wrong,'' another added. Back in June, it was reported that the couple's lavish European wedding cost more than $1million (£866k), Mail Online said. The couple looked absolutely besotted with each other as they happily danced after the ceremony, while guests clapped along. The fun didn't end there either, with the newlyweds later hoisted into the air on chairs inside the villa's ballroom and celebratory firework show. James is the son of world poker champ Joe Hachem, while Antonia is a social media influencer and content creator who boasts 214,000 followers on Instagram and a further 195,000 on TikTok.
