BBC Easter schedule shake up set to impact Beyond Paradise

Season two of the Death in Paradise spin-off, Beyond Paradise, began last Friday (March 22) with the likes of Kris Marshall (DI Humphrey Goodman), Sally Bretton (Martha Lloyd) and Dylan Llewelyn (PC Kelby Hartford) returning.

The show follows DI Humphrey Goodman following his relocation from Saint Marie (from Death in Paradise) to sleepy Shipton Abbott where he goes about "cracking cases and hoping for happily ever after with fiancée Martha" the BBC explains.
