Death In Paradise: Season 1. Arriving in Paradise
D.I. Richard Poole arrives at a Caribbean Island to investigate a colleagues death, dealing with heat, sand and a mysterious woman. Wicked Wedding Night
Slowly adjusting to life with his colleagues, Fidel, Dwayne and Camille, Richard deals with the death of a bride on her big day with 6 suspects in the light. Predicting Murder
A voodoo priestess tells Dwayne she will be dead shortly and to look for a man with a face scar. The woman turns up dead in a classroom that belongs to a science teacher with a face scar. Poole goes back to a missing person case to get the answers. Missing a Body?
A woman walks into the police station confessing to murdering her husband, only thing is the body has disappeared. Poole is reluctant to charge her. Spot the Difference
While dealing with a prisoner transfer, Poole is cuffed to the prisoner and dies due to a stabbing on the ferry, and the team try to find who would want the prisoner dead and turns out half the island wanted the man dead due to being a scammer. An Unhelpful Aid
Poole is struck with a tropical fever, Dwayne and Fidel try to solve the case of a dead diver and have to contend with Poole's irritating replacement. Music of Murder
A Reggae music band pan to make a comeback and the lead singer is found dead, Poole and his team try to find who done it and motive. Camille discovers Poole is afraid of snakes and makes fun of him. Amongst Us
A woman is found dead in her home with coins beside her and in her mouth but Dwayne's police badge is found at the crime scene. Poole is given news that he may be able to return back home to England.
I will admit I am not a fan of Ben Miller but in this he is good as a out of sorts detective who still manages to crack a case using out of date methods with no crime lab. There is some good drama mixed in with some comedy and a small lizard that seems to pop up every no and again that seems to be Poole's new room mate.
