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. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

Beyond Paradise leaves us with one unanswered question as show future 'sealed'
Beyond Paradise aired its last episode of the series tonight (Image: (Image: BBC)) Beyond Paradise aired its final episode of the series tonight as Humphrey Goodman tackled a difficult new case that involved a woman who had disappeared on her way to work. The hit BBC detective drama - featuring Kris Marshall, Sally Bretton and Zahra Ahmadi in the lead roles - was back tonight for one final episode of its third series as the team tackled a seemingly impossible case. In the new episode, the police of Shipton Abbot were investigating the case of a young woman who had disappeared - but soon they realised that her disappearance actually coincided with the disappearance of another woman. As the series wrapped up, a lot of the final storylines were explained including how PC Kelby Hartford took the dog that had been guarding the women and given it a new life after the culprits were arrested. The cast of Beyond Paradise (Image: BBC) It was also shown Humphrey and Martha waving goodbye to young Rosie, who they had fostered. Her mum had been allowed to have her back and a care plan was put in place to ensure she was ok. However, one storyline did get left in the air. Throughout the series, Esther had been seeing Martha's former flame Archie. The pair had shared some time together, before Esther called it off. In the end, there had been real hopes they might get back together but she decided she couldn't do it. Archie asked her why she was so scared about them being together or letting her guard down, but she just drove off. Could this be proof there's a new series in the works or will we never find out what really happens to Esther and Archie? Now fans are likely to be thinking what will happen between Archie and Esther. Before the start of the series, speaking about the chance of romance, Jamie said of Archie's prospects: "He's come back ready for other relationships. He's not the kind of man who's happy being a 'solo traveler' through life - he's looking for partnership. "And without spoiling too much, he will give it a go somewhere in Shipton Abbott this season." Of course, we now know that's with Esther, who is also feeling good about herself and her romance chances, according to actress Zahra, who has played Esther in all three series of the BBC show. "At this point in the series, she's in such a good place that she's unknowingly giving off a different kind of energy - it's attracting a different kind of man than she's used to. She's hesitant at first because this person isn't someone she'd usually go for," she said. "But this new, more confident version of Esther thinks, 'OK, let's see where this goes.' Things end up going further than she initially expected, which creates some challenges and forces her to think seriously about the situation. It's not something she's allowed herself to get into since Zoe's dad, so it's been a long time coming." Like this story?

Beyond Paradise detectives face devilish mystery in exclusive season 3 finale clip
Beyond Paradise will delight viewers with its most intense mystery yet, as Kris Marshall's Humphrey Goodman and the team at Shipton Abbott are faced with a strange case when a woman goes missing. In an exclusive clip from the show's season 3 finale, Kelby (Dylan Llewellyn) is left exasperated by a man called Josh Woods who he says will be "the death of" him before the man himself appears, running into the officer and trying desperately get the team's help. His partner Lucy has gone missing but not before she left him an ominous voice message that appears to indicate something bad has happened to her. As Kelby tries to chase Josh around the table it's Humphrey who forces the pair to stop and play nice so that they can discuss the case. Josh reveals he tried to call Lucy but her phone is switched off and she didn't turn up at work at the local hospital, and he shares his concern that her disappearance is linked to the Devil's Hump — a local folktale and legend along the Devon coast. Josh wonders whether the Devil's Hump could be a part of the mystery, saying that Lucy "always cycles over it". Kelby and Humphrey question whether they should be believing in a folk tale, but Margo (Felicity Montagu) says: 'It's said to be put there by the devil himself, if you have bad thoughts when you go over it..." with Josh finishing the quote by saying: "The devil can take your soul." It teases a compelling mystery with a supernatural twist to end the series, with the BBC sharing in their summary of the episode that the Devil's Hump could "hold a vital clue" to the case. Marshall previously told Yahoo UK and other publications that it is his favourite case of the show thus far. "I think the puzzle in episode 6, and the solving of the puzzle, is probably the most incredible —and incredibly intricate— puzzle I've ever witnessed in TV," the actor said. "It's insane, it's so clever. I don't know how they wrote it, it's brilliant." Marshall added that what he enjoys best about the BBC crime drama is how innovative it is when it comes to its cases: "I think what's good about Beyond Paradise is that it has become more representative of this environment, and the sort of rural wild beauty of the place. "I think that's great because it makes you realise there's only a certain amount of ways you can murder someone on a TV series but there are myriad ways that you can rustle sheep or steal art, or commit arson in a show. We've got all those kinds of crimes going on." The Beyond Paradise season 3 finale airs at 8pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
