Death In Paradise has begun filming again – with Ralf Little back in the starring role.

The BBC One detective show is filmed on the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe.

The 10th anniversary series will be back with safety measures, including social distancing, face coverings and temperature and Covid-19 testing.

Executive producer Tim Key said: “We’ve got some real treats for our long-term viewers as the series progresses – including some major surprises and the possibility of another returning face or two.

“We are determined to make this our biggest and best series yet and can’t wait to take our viewers back to Saint Marie in 2021.”

DS Florence Cassell, played by fan favourite Josephine Jobert, returns to the show.

Little replaced Ardal O’Hanlon in the lead role on the tropical detective series.
