Shyko Amos is one of a number of returning cast members from Death in Paradise to have just finished filming in Guadeloupe. Ahead of the new season on BBC One in 2020, Amos and the rest of her co-stars had been putting together the final touches while in the Caribbean but now they’ve returned to the UK. Despite Death in Paradise duties only ceasing a week or so ago, Amos has revealed she’s taking on a new project, a venture she says has made her “quite nervous.”
The actress behind Ruby Patterson has been regularly updating fans throughout filming this year.
From suffering from a shock injury on-set to confirming filming had finished, Amos regularly used social media to keep fans in the know.
Now, the Death in Paradise star has taken her interaction with fans one step further.
Amos has decided to start vlogging on her own YouTube channel, a job she says makes her “quite nervous”.
