Death in Paradise is expected to return to BBC One in January 2021. So far, there have been no talks of any more delays in filming so as long as the cast and crew stay on schedule, Death in Paradise will be back in the New Year. The upcoming series will mark the show’s 10th anniversary and it is predicted to be an exciting season.
WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Death in Paradise.
DI Neville Parker (played by Ralf Little) was welcomed midway through season nine as DI Jack Mooney (Ardal O’Hanlon) left to go back to London with his daughter Siobhan (Grace Stone).
This will be the first full season in which actor Little will star in as the bumbling and health-conscious detective.
Unfortunately, he will have to say goodbye to two of his current colleagues during series 10.
Actress Shyko Amos and Aude Legastelois-Bidé, who respectively play Officer Ruby Patterson and DS Madeleine Dumas, will be leaving the show.
In a statement, BBC One said: “After two series bringing law, order, and joy to the streets of Saint Marie, we’re sad to say goodbye to Ruby Patterson who made such a massive impact in such a short time!
“DS Madeleine Dumas will also be departing Saint Marie’s sunny shores and we would like to thank Shyko Amos and Aude Legastelois-Bidé for bringing Ruby and Madeleine to life and wish them all the very best for the future.”
While it will be sad to see them both go, a member of the DIP alumni will be making a return to the series.
Is Florence Cassell going to be killed in Death in Paradise?
DS Florence Cassell (Josephine Jobert) left Saint Marie in 2019 after her fiancé Patrice Campbell (Leemore Marrett Jr) was murdered.
She will be coming back in season 10 but it is unclear if she will be back for good.
When a fan asked if she would be a permanent member of the cast on Twitter, actress Jobert replied: “Permanently? I don’t know yet. And I appear very early in the episodes.”
While she will feature in the beginning of the new season, this doesn’t mean Florence is going to be there until the end.

With the actress not confirming if she will be in the entirety of season 10, this does indicate she could be involved in a plot twist.
Just as Florence returns to Saint Marie, will she also be killed off like her true love Patrice?
Murdering off main characters doesn’t happen often on Death in Paradise with the majority of them having a happy ending.
However, this hasn’t always been the case as the first detective was murdered.
In season three, DI Richard Poole (Ben Miller) attended a university reunion with friends.
But at the soiree, Richard was shockingly murdered with an ice pick, leading to DI Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) being welcomed to crack the case.
Could Florence soon suffer the same fate as part of the 10th anniversary season?
Death in Paradise is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
