Death in Paradise	comment	Death in Paradise is a French-British crime drama, created by Robert Thorogood, that premiered in 2011. It is a joint Anglo-French production between The BBC and France TÃ©lÃ©visions.The series focuses on the police department on the fictional Caribbean island of Saint Marie,note The show is produced on the French overseas dÃ©partement of Guadaloupe. a British Overseas Territory. While the police commissioner is a local, the operative police work is led by a British detective, who invariably has to deal with the surprisingly high murder rate while trying to come to grips with the wholly foreign environment he's landed in. He's ably assisted by the local police force while they themselves are trying to figure out their new boss.As of April 2023, the show stars Shantol Jackson as DS Naomi Thomas, Ginny Holder as Trainee Officer Darlene Curtis and Danny John-Jules as Officer Dwayne Myers. The most recent Inspector was Neville Parker (played by Ralf Little), who left at the end of Series 13.DI Parker was preceded by DI Richard Poole (Ben Miller) in Series 1 and 2, DI Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) in Series 3 through 6, and DI Jack Mooney (Ardal O'Hanlon) in Series 6 through 9.The show has a revolving cast of regulars, and only one of the four main cast from the first series is still part of the lineup.note Danny John-Jules left the show after Series 7, guest starred in Series 11, and is now a regular again as of Series 13. Only the supporting characters Commissioner Selwyn Patterson (Don Warrington) and Catherine Bordeynote the mother of one of the original detectives, owner of the bar the main cast hang out at, and later the Mayor of Saint Marie (Ã‰lizabeth Bourgine) remain from the premiere.note There's also Harry the lizard, but he's generated with CGI and therefore isn't a credited role.A spinoff series, Beyond Paradise, launched in February 2023. It follows the exploits of DI Goodman, now back in Britain and based in "a picturesque town with a surprisingly high murder rate".note Although compared to the way that Mystery Magnet usually plays out, there have actually been surprisingly few murders thus far.A second spinoff series, titled Return to Paradise, has been announced. In a reverse of the original's formula, the show will centre around an Australian working for the London Met forced to go back to her hometown to solve a murder and finds herself sticking around.Thorogood has also written a series of novels which feature the original line-up from the first two series.

Death in Paradise / int_1779f10e	comment	"Well Done, Son" Guy: Humphrey Goodman. Humphrey's father is convinced that Humphrey is wasting his life playing a game of cops-and-robbers instead of becoming a barrister like him (and his brother). In "Unlike Father, Unlike Son", Humphrey's father comes to the island to convince him to come back home to England for his ex-wife, Sally. Finally having had enough of trying to please his father, Humphrey tells his father that he is a very good detective and that he is happier on Saint Marie than then he ever was in England and is staying there. After watching his son solve the case, Humphrey's father realises he is happy for him to remain in Saint Marie. Since the murder took place in the island's courthouse, Humphrey gets to deliver The Summation in a courtroom, exactly as if he was a barrister; consciously or unconsciously, he plays up the role of an attorney in front of a jury to the fullest while his impressed father looks on.

Not wanting their killer to go to prison for their murder, the victim staunches the bleeding and walks upstairs in full view of the guests (who mistake his slight stumbling for him being drunk). Once in his room, he locks the door and stages the room to make it look like there had been a break-in. After hiding the blood-soaked scarf he had used to stem the bleeding, he expires on the floor.

Death in Paradise / int_1b4ea159	type	The Alibi
Death in Paradise / int_1b4ea159	comment	The Alibi: A key part of the show, although some cases have alibis that prove to be faked: In at least one instance a suspect who seemingly had a cast-iron alibi (they'd seemingly unwittingly taken a photo of the murder in progress) and was ruled out by Humphrey turned out to be the guilty party after all (they'd left their camera on automatic in order to capture the picture, and were caught out when Humphrey noticed the large number of pictures where the camera angle wasn't changing). During another case, Neville determined that all four suspects could be accounted for at the moment of death, but eventually realised that the victim was killed by his own daughter when he saw her during a few seconds when she was alone, and he just took a few minutes to actually die rather than being instantly killed by his stab wound. A later case dealt with a stabbing victim naming his supposed killer, his estranged wife, in his dying breath, except his partner and sister-in-law has video proof that the wife was nowhere near where the victim was stabbed at the time of death, giving both the wife and her sister alibis (the wife can't have been the killer because she was caught on video, and the sister was the one who made the video). Except Neville soon figures out that it was the sister who committed the murder when he realised that it wasn't her who made the video; she discreetly switched phones with an old man so he would take the video with her phone to give herself an alibi. Yet another case involved a victim who was stabbed with her own knitting needle at a retirement home in the garden, but every identifiable suspect can vouch for each other that they were all in the bingo hall at the time. As Neville works out the case, he realises that the victim was stabbed by her adopted daughter in the hall during an argument while everyone else was focused on the bingo game, and used the few moments she had left to leave the hall and make her way to the garden to cover up for her daughter and give her an alibi. A few episodes after the above, a woman was apparently stabbed within the fifteen seconds between when she got into a lift on her own on the first floor and it reached the bottom floor fifteen seconds later. It was later revealed that the lift actually went to the lower ground floor so that she could be stabbed by her son-in-law, her husband making two different phone calls to establish a false timetable.

Zig-zagged in "A Double Bogey" where a wife and her brother in law (who was also her lover) staged an attack on the brother in law, and then try and frame the husband for it by planting evidence and have the brother in law leave a fake message on the wife's mobile during the "attack" namedropping his brother. What they couldn't account for was that the husband was caught on CCTV having a cigarette at the same time, initially clearing him. It turned out that the husband then took a walk after his cigarette, saw his brother lying on the floor unconscious after the wife had knocked him out after the staged attack to make it look more real, and decided to finish him off, since he knew they were having an affair.

Aside from the victim, nobody else had access to either the drink or the studio prior to her death. The killer actually used chloroform to knock her out and then made sure they the first to reach her 'body'. While examining her, they administered a fatal dose of cyanide, then added a few drops to the can of drink, making it appear to be the source of the poison.

Similarly, after Goodman takes over following Poole's death, Dwayne comments that he is "no chief"; within a couple of episodes, he has started calling Goodman "chief" as well.

Death in Paradise / int_253c1204	type	Obfuscating Postmortem Wounds
Death in Paradise / int_253c1204	comment	Obfuscating Postmortem Wounds: In the episode "Missing A Body?", the killer used the fact that the victim had already sustained a gunshot injury from a previous attempt on his life (in self-defence) to make it seem like he had been killed during that first attempt. He even used the same gun (which the victim brought along with him) to inflict the fatal wound. This trope was the driving force behind the murder committed in the episode "She Was Murdered Twice". During the episode, the killer suffocates the victim to protect his secret and immediately panics afterwards, as he'll surely be the prime suspect for the murder because of said secret. He then comes up with the idea to "kill" the victim a second time by shooting her and pleading guilty to attempted murder, which carries a lower sentence, while getting off scott-free for the actual murder. This would have worked too, if not for DI Goodman exposing the killer's true motive by discovering what the victim had found out about the killer. The episode "Unlike Father, Unlike Son" had a variation on this trope. At the start of the episode, the victim had staged his own murder, with the help of an accomplice, by using a pack of fake blood to emulate a gunshot wound. The accomplice, however, wanted the victim dead and used the fake gunshot wound as a cover for the real gunshot wound, allowing him to shift the time of death by mere minutes, which was enough to give him an alibi.

Cue Goodman keeling from his chair. What's even more funny: Come next morning he's none the worse for wear while JP and Dwayne are obviously still smarting from the past night. He's actually making breakfast for them.

Death in Paradise / int_2d1d46bb	comment	Lotsa People Try to Dun It: In "Murder on the Day of the Dead", the victim suffered both an attempted murder and an actual murder, although only the former has a witness. In "She Was Murdered Twice", the body of a woman is found shot in bed at a company retreat. After Detective Humphrey investigates for a while, he quickly finds a prime suspect, who confesses to having shot the victim. After putting him in jail to await trial, the coroner's report comes in and says that she was strangled to death before she was shot, and Humphrey has to find the second killer. In the end, it's a subversion. There was only one killer, who strangled the victim in the heat of the moment, and immediately realized afterwards that he would become the prime suspect and would be caught. With nothing to lose, he tries to get sent to prison for attempted murder and a significantly shorter sentence. He shoots the corpse, and when the police start to close in, he "confesses" to having murdered the victim by shooting her. Then he just waits in his cell for the coroner to send the police on a wild goose chase. Humphrey ends up having to catch the exact same killer twice for the same murder.

Subverted when it turned out that the husband did actually kill him, making it an odd case of Framing the Guilty Party, and "Painkiller Thriller" where the killer tries to make it look like the care assistant gave the victim the wrong medication.

Death in Paradise / int_2d717e11	type	Suicide, Not Murder
Death in Paradise / int_2d717e11	comment	Suicide, Not Murder: In a series 1 episode, an elderly woman makes a voodoo prediction about her own death at the hands of a "scarred man" and then dies in suspicious circumstances the next day. As it turns out, she had long suspected this particular scarred man of her daughter's murder, and she faked her own murder at his hands in order to get the police to investigate him again. Played with in a series 4 episode. It was suicide, although the victim had help from one of the 'suspects', who was a doctor lying about the victim having a terminal illness in order to manipulate him into taking his own life. In "Stumped in Murder", the Victim of the Week commits suicide, but the first person on the scene hides the weapon and suicide note, making it look like murder, in hopes of framing the man who drove the victim to suicide. In a series 7 episode, a woman is poisoned at a spiritual healing event. She took the poison herself (she was terminally ill), but, as planned, her actions led Mooney to discover a murder the preacher had committed 30 years earlier. In "I'll Never Let You Go", the Victim of the Week was attempting to commit suicide when one of her friends found her and tried to stop her by taking the gun off her. However, she pulled the trigger anyway and, because the gun was between them at the time, it made it look like she had been shot from a distance. The friend blacked out and hit his head. He woke with no memory of what had happened, but woke up holding the gun and with her blood on him, and assumed he had killed her. In "Christmas in Paradise", the Victim of the Week supposedly commits suicide. However, DI Parker realises that the body was moved and assumes that the victim was murdered elsewhere and the body moved to the beach and staged to look like a suicide. It is ultimately revealed that he had, in fact, commited suicide, but someone moved his body because he had deliberately commited suicide in a spot where the body from a murder commited 40 years earlier was buried, hoping that his recorded suicide note would lead to the body being discovered. The murderer moved him so the police would focus their investigation elsewhere.

He turns up dead later that evening, having apparently committed suicide by gunshot to the chest; however, Humphrey quickly determines that the shot was from the wrong angle - indicating a murder despite the presence of a suicide note. It turns out that the victim was running a gun-smuggling operation, and was using the scandal as an opportunity to fake his Suicide by Sea so he could "vanish" and continue his business abroad, hence the suicide note. However, his wife found out and shot him dead before he could put the finishing touches on his escape.

Similarly with Goodman: he's clumsy and can be very tactless, but is just as nice a guy. Jack Mooney's a bit closer to this trope, since he's still in mourning over his late wife, but he's still pretty well-balanced and decent. Parker is the straightest example. He is very neurotic and and has a delicate constitution, which drives others, especially Commissioner Patterson, around the bend. He still proves to be as competent as his predecessors, however.

Death in Paradise / int_355e858b	comment	Clothing Reflects Personality: The British detectives working on Saint Marie all dress differently to reflect their differing work ethics. Charlie Hulme wears loud Hawaiian shirts as he is a hard-drinking Life of the Party and is only there to spend his last working years having fun. Richard Poole is always dressed in wool suits and sleeps in full pyjamas, despite the heat, as he wants to go back to London and adapting to the local climate would indicate that he was starting to feel at home on the island and that's the last thing he wants. Humphrey Goodman wears lots of light linen jackets as he's eager to be on the island but knows he's also there to work and has to look presentable. Jack Mooney falls somewhere between Poole and Goodman, dressing in bright colors but also in fabrics that are too heavy for the tropical climate, reflecting his cheerful personality but also that he'd only intended to come to the island for a short holiday before being unexpectedly dragooned into staying. He's also the most rumpled of the lead characters, symbolizing his depression in the wake of his wife's death. Neville Parker wears jackets and ties to highlight how uncomfortable he is with being on the island, not unlike Poole before him. He's not as uptight as Poole, though, so his clothes are more colourful. As he becomes more settled on St Marie he takes to dressing very casually when off-duty. One season two episode does the same with accessories, when the team all need to measure travel times: eager and by-the-book Fidel uses the station-issue stopwatch; science nerd Richard uses his own personal stopwatch; old-fashioned Dwayne uses his wristwatch; modern woman Camille uses her smartphone.

The drugged coffee would not have killed her had she not gone for a swim, where she passed out and drowned.

Death in Paradise / int_38d02d44	comment	Batman Gambit: The murder in the third episode of the twelfth season basically depended on this; the killer hid on board the victimâ€™s boat and attacked her after the current passengers took a dinghy to a nearby beach, leaving his target alone. The killer planned that the noise of the motor would stop anyone hearing his victimâ€™s calls for help, and after her death, he could swim ashore, sure that people would be focused on the beautiful beach they were here to visit and not look behind as he swam to a point further down the coast. The twelfth season two-parter also relies on this; Sophie stole a key from the crime scene and replaced it with a close copy so that she could escape said crime scene after killing David Cartwright, relying on the idea that she would be able to switch the key back before someone else came to take over the case.

Death in Paradise / int_44989f6f	comment	"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: In "The Stakes are High", the murderer turns out to be the victim's wife, thinking he was having an affair, unaware that the woman he'd gone to meet was actually his estranged daughter; if he had been honest with his wife about who he was going to meet he wouldn't have been killed. Also a factor in "An Unholy Death"; the head of a local convent kills a nun because she believes that the priest she runs the content with was having an affair with the nun, as he had a reputation for similar dalliances in the past. After learning that she killed the nun, the priest reveals that the nun was his daughter. "A Murder on the Plantation" sees the victim killed to speed up the process of his new girlfriend (and the killer's sister) inheriting the plantation so they could destroy it to avenge their father. However, it turned out that the victim was going to announce that he only had months to live due to a brain tumour that afternoon so if they'd have waited, they could have gained control of the plantation without comitting murder. Poole even points out that because they were caught, the will is void.

The witness had left the island before the crime was discovered, and never returned until now. In "Melodies of Murder", DI Mooney has to reopen a 30 year old cold murder—originally investigated by Commissioner Patterson—when the husband of the victim announces that he has new evidence regarding the murder, and is promptly murdered himself. The 2022 Christmas special begins with a flashback to one of Commissioner Patterson's first cases as a police officer where he was investigating the disappearance of a young boy in the swamp, which ended with the discovery of skeletal remains and one of the boy's shoes in the swamp. When a true crime writer comes to the island to investigate the case, it is revealed that the boy was swept out to sea and suffered amnesia; the remains that were found were actually from a century ago.

This is the motive behind multiple cases, like supposed murder victims actually having committed suicide so their relatives can reap their life insurance (which is null and void in case of suicide), or one man who was accidentally stabbed by the woman he loved and then immediately made it look like he ran afoul of a burglar instead to ensure his lover wouldn't end up in prison for her mishap.

He would have gotten away with it, if it weren't for the fact that his brother's corpse is later on found without the bandana (which the culprit tossed in the trash afterwards). Richard Poole's demise in the season 3 premiere was because he realized that Sasha Moore, his best friend from college, was actually her supposedly dead sister Helen Reed. In "Dishing Up Murder," after temperamental celebrity chef Robert Holt was stabbed to death by his son in a heated fight, the rest of his inner circle, who all hate him, conspire to cover up the crime to protect the son. This includes having Robert's brother Gary impersonate him for the soft-opening of Robert's new restaurant on St. Marie, setting up the opening so that nobody actually needs to see Robert. In "The Healer", a faith healer has being masquerading as his best friend (who he killed) for decades. The Victim of the Week knew this but had no conclusive proof, and so arranged her suicide to look like she'd been murdered at his hands so that he'd face some sort of justice. In "Tour de Murder", the killer's accomplice takes the place of the Victim of the Week at the start of a cycle race (wearing full cycling gear including helmet and wraparound sunglasses, and arriving just before the start of the race to prevent anyone getting a good look at them) to make it look like the victim died later than they actually did and allowing the killer to establish an alibi. In the 2021 Christmas Special it turned out that the real Phillip Carlton had been murdered over 30 years earlier, that the person claiming to be him was in fact his wife's cousin/lover, who had taken over his life.

Death in Paradise / int_6da4d56e	comment	Conspicuously Public Assassination: In "Murder Begins at Home," the Victim of the Week turns up dead inside the police station, despite the fact that the station was locked from the inside, and the previous night he was on a horse-riding expedition several miles away with all of the suspects. DI Mooney and the team are naturally baffled as to why the murderer would kill him, then leave his body in the most conspicuous place possible. It turns out that isn't what happened; the murderer strangled him in a fit of rage, then dumped his body in town in the hope of making it look like the alcoholic victim had wandered in there looking for a drink and been the victim of a mugging that went wrong. However, the strangulation did not actually kill him, and he woke up a short while later looking for help, but couldn't find anyone due to a storm hitting the island. He broke into the police station through the window, then locked it again because of the storm, and was about to call the hospital when the asphyxiation triggered an underlying medical condition that caused a fatal stroke.

They assume that someone must have killed him on the plane he was jumping from and then threw the body outside, but video proves that he was alive when he jumped, and that no one went with him, leaving them confused. Turns out that the skydiver had deliberately jumped out of the plane at a different point to everyone else so that he could he reach the ground first, run to the airport and then confront the pilot of the plane when he landed several minutes later. They get into a fight, the pilot kills him, but has enough time to put the body back into the plane, take off, throw the body out of the plane where the victim originally jumped from, turn back around and then land before the rest of the sky diving party came back to the airport.

As DI Goodman eventually figures out this was deliberate to disguise the fact that Robert was already dead before the opening, following his long abused son stabbing him to death and the sympathetic others helping cover it up by holding the opening as if everything was normal, with Robert's brother posing as him. "Pilot of the Airwaves": Following killing the victim, the killer used their sauna to keep the body warm, thus allowing them to stage their own alibi by having an accomplice pose as the victim returning from a run, before dumping the body in their swimming pool. DI Parker points out during his summation that this was part of the problem in the scenario, as there was no reason for the victim to use a sauna after going for a hot run on a tropical island.

Death in Paradise / int_786bf97f	comment	Real Life Writes the Plot: The common factor behind the departures of the first three Inspector characters. Ben Miller enjoyed working on the show, but suffered because Poole wore wool suits despite the heat and humidity (Poole was often shot from the waist up because Miller would wear shorts and sandals to try and deal with the heat). He departed the show because he wanted to be with his family but his wife couldn't stand the tropical climate (she also discovered that she was pregnant shortly after the first series began filming, with Miller's departure causing tension between the two). Kris Marshall had his family with him while shooting his first series and was quite proud of sending his daughter to a local school and seeing her learn French. But his wife didn't want to be spending half the year in the Caribbean after the two had their most recent child. When Marshall returned from filming a series, his youngest son didn't even recognize him; he quit the show the next year. Marshall later also noted that his departure came as he was considering moving after his son began going native, with his academic results beginning to falter. Ardal O'Hanlon similarly grew homesick and began missing his wife and children due to the long time away shooting the series. He also admitted that he was worried his stand up comedy skills were getting rusty and that he wanted to get back into comedy. A Series 7 episode ran into trouble when the actor playing the murderer died of natural causes midway through filming. The episode was hastily rewritten so the character has already fled the island by the time Mooney manages to crack the case. The episode was dedicated to the actor's memory.

Not wanting their killer to go to prison for their murder, the victim staunches the bleeding and walks upstairs in full view of the guests (who mistake his slight stumbling for him being drunk). Once in his room, he locks the door and stages the room to make it look like there had been a break-in. After hiding the blood-soaked scarf he had used to stem the bleeding, he expires on the floor. In "Murder Begins at Home," the victim was strangled, but not fatally (although the killer did believe he was dead), but the strangulation triggered an underlying medical condition a short while later that caused a fatal stroke. This explains how the victim's body ended up in the police station even though it was locked from the inside. This is actually invoked by the victim of "Murder on Mosquito Island". Upon realizing that his killer was a previous bullying victim of his, he slowed his bleeding long enough to cover up his own murder as a form of atonement. The victim in "Last Call to HonorÃ©", who, after being stabbed by his own daughter, managed to stem the bleeding enough to drive a couple of minutes up the road to a payphone, only to die while phoning for an ambulance.

When questioned about it, Jack explains that whilst he hasnâ€™t played before today after twenty years of interrogating suspects back in London, heâ€™s an expert on reading human body language, which allows him to effortlessly figure out all of their tells and judge how good their cards are.

The father left his wife and surviving son because he couldn't cope with the guilt of his decision, but when the son found the father years later, he staged an elaborate murder in a fit of rage.

Robert cheated on his girlfriend and partner (both romantically and professionally), dominated and abused his son, blackmailed his homosexual sous chef, had an affair with his pastry chef, and had allowed his brother Gary to take the fall for a crime he had committed. So when his own son killed him in a heated argument, everyone else in the inner circle proceeded to work together to cover up the crime, by putting the body in the freezer so that the time of death couldn't be determined, then proceeded with the soft-opening as if nothing was wrong (with the brother posing as the victim), and making sure there was an outside witness around when they pretended to "discover" the body.

However, after seeing Jack in action solving a murder, her final report is that while his administration could stand to be a little more professional and organised, he is effective at his job and Florence's shooting was not his fault. The Commissioner ends up seconding her to become Florence's replacement.

Death in Paradise / int_9a888d97	comment	Finger-Licking Poison: The stamp variant occurs in "Ye of Little Faith": the murderer knows that the victim writes postcards each time she lands somewhere new, including licking stamps to send them, and uses this knowledge to poison the stamps and thus the victim. And in doing so gets an alibi since the actual death occurs on the ground while the murderer is still on an aeroplane en route. Also done in "One for the Road," with the poison being in an envelope seal, with the twist being that the killer set the crime scene up to make it appear the victim had drunk the poison in a glass of champagne — thus getting an alibi by not having any opportunity to put the poison in the glass until after the victim was already collapsing. In "Damned If You Do...", the Victim of the Week gets poisoned by a lethal dose of poison being placed on the pages of his journal before he retires to write a speech. The killer then poisons the dinner being eaten by everyone, including themself, with a milder dose in an attempt to make it appear he died from food poisoning. In "Steamy Confessions", the Victim of the Week is a professor with the habit of chewing on the arms of his glasses when thinking. The murderer poisons him by coating the arms of his glasses with arsenic and then swaps the glasses for the professor's spare set so there is no obvious source of poison.

Lampshaded in "Death of a Detective" when Camille prepares to summon the suspects after new-boy Goodman solves the case, only for him to ask "why?". He goes through with it, and carries on with it thereafter because he enjoyed it the first time. Mooney keeps up the tradition during his run, presumably after seeing Goodman do it in London, and assuming that's how the Saint Marie Police operate. Parker questions why the team needs to go through the trouble on his first case, but by that point it's just expected. Averted in "Pirates at the Murder Scene", where Jack confronts the murderer with just himself present. Jack decides to do this because the culprit had suffered years of Domestic Abuse at the hands of the victim and Jack didn't want to traumatise her anymore by revealing what had happened in front of the other suspects. He also had sympathy for her plight. "Undercover and Out" also didn't have a summation gathering, instead Florence gets the killer to confess while the killer holds her at gunpoint. "Death of a Pawn" also doesn't have a summation gathering, as the detectives instead confront the murderer on his own without the other suspects, likely because his motive involved the relatively sympathetic goal of avenging his secret male lover.

Death in Paradise / int_a4c37cbe	comment	Mood Whiplash: Whimsical humor pads many episodes, which contain some rather dark and gruesome (and at times rather heartbreaking) deaths. The teaser often ends with the dramatic discovery of a corpse...then immediately goes into the bright, holiday programme-like visuals of the intro and instrumental of "You're Wondering Now". This may be deliberately invoked. This was particularly jarring when the corpse in question was Poole's and we then switched to the cheerful music and footage of a very much alive Poole dragging his suitcase across the beach...then back to everyone mourning him.

When he's offered the chance to leave Saint Marie for a position back in England, Poole doesn't choose to stay; he gets along well enough with his team, sure, but he's not going to endure a tropical climate longer than he has to. Since the police force needs Poole's expertise, Commissioner Patterson uses every dirty trick in the book to prevent him from leaving, from delivering the news at the last minute (which forces Poole to try and solve the case in time to find a working phone that he can use to call back and accept) to pretending his mobile doesn't have a signal. Poole wraps up the case like always (and helps Fidel deliver his baby), so the episode still has a happy ending, but he's none too pleased when he misses his window and gets stranded on Saint Marie for the foreseeable future.

Death in Paradise / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: The murder of Poole at the start of "Death of a Detective" bears a strong resemblance to Hercule Poirot's description of what he would consider to be the most interesting hypothetical murder to solve at the start of The ABC Murders and later used as the premise for Cards on the Table. The only difference is that the setup to the crime involves a game of charades rather than bridge. At the end of an episode involving a murdered bird-watcher there's a mini-Reveal that the Saint Marie green parrot is actually extinct, the last breeding pair having been killed by a hurricane two years ago. Dwayne and the manager of the parrot sanctuary where the murder took place start quoting the "Dead Parrot Sketch". The first episode of Series eight is entitled "Murder on the Honore Express". Not only does the episode centre around a murderer being stabbed to death on a moving vehicle, but DI Mooney even comments at one point that the only solution is that all the passengers were in on it together (even though this is not actually the case and he dismisses his own claim).

When he apologises to her and tells her that he resubmitted the transfer request on her behalf, he tells her "Someone once told me that mistakes don't matter, what matters is what you do to put them right."

Death in Paradise / int_cfbd1467	comment	Never Suicide: In "The Secret of the Flame Tree'', a young student seemingly throws herself to her death off a cliff in imitation of a literary suicide. However, one look at her suicide note is enough to make Humphrey suspicious that this was not a suicide. In "Man Overboard", the prime suspect of the current investigation is found dead in an office locked from the inside with a gun in his hand. However, Goodman and Mooney were suspicious even before the man's phone received a call about a restaurant booking he'd made for that evening. In "Murder from Above", a bride-to-be seemingly throws herself to her death off her hotel balcony. Everybody, including the Commissioner, wants to write this off as a suicide, but Mooney can't move beyond the fact that she painted one thumbnail before jumping. "Switcharoo" begins with the team investigating the apparent suicide of a woman found in her bathtub with her plugged-in hairdryer, both the hotel room and the bathroom doors locked from the inside. However, visiting Detective Inspector Neville Parker notes that the victim was also wearing her mouthguard, which prompts him to rule out the idea of suicide as she would hardly be concerned about the long-term condition of her teeth if she was about to kill herself. In "Chain Reaction," a nurse is found in a room that has been locked from the inside and in full view of at least three patients for an hour before they realised she was dead, all evidence seems to support the idea that she ground pills into her drink and killed herself in that room. However, Parker is sceptical of this when he realises that the nurse had set an alarm to give him further medication two hours after her body was found, something she wouldn't have bothered with if she was truly about to kill herself. In "Undercover and Out", a man is found dead in a locked and bolted office with a gun in his hand, and a suicide note written on his computer, but Parker is suspicious when he learns that a drug lord is visiting the victim, and Florence (who's working undercover for said drug lord) leaves him a message on his Dictaphone.

Death in Paradise / int_d143edf2	comment	Everybody Did It: In "A Deadly Party", with the exception of the victim's wife, all of the suspects were in on the crime, working together to manipulate when the time of death was thought to occur, and providing each other with alibis. Done in "Dishing up Murder," when the son murdered his father. However, given that his father was an Asshole Victim, and had also manipulated and generally treated the other suspects around him like dirt, hardly anyone felt sorry to see him dead, and instead came up with a plan to protect the son by making the murder look like a robbery gone wrong. In "Erupting in Murder", it turns out all of the suspects (bar one) committed the murder: two doing it for the money, and the third being blackmailed into it. The fourth suspect gets arrested on corruption charges. In "Murder from Above," where a man's new bride is murdered, it turns out all three of his adult children from his first marriage were in on it together. In Season 13, all three of the women suspected of killing celebrity chef Stanley Drake in Episode 3 are guilty, and conspired to poison him with three different meals, each consuming a non-fatal amount themselves. The seemingly benevolent Drake was a serial rapist, and this was the only way his victims felt they could get justice. In season 13, all five of the suspects in the season finale are involved. Three took bribes to cover the missing man's disappearance and lie to the police, one lured him into a trap and tried to kill him, and the fifth- the husband of the woman who lured him into the trap- actually finished the job and shot him dead while letting his wife think she did it.

Death in Paradise / int_dcaa8b35	comment	Locked Room Mystery: A literal description, though it turns out not a true example, in "Arriving in Paradise." An example, though not a literal description, in "Wicked Wedding Night." "Predicting Murder" and "Missing a Body?" as the emphasis is often on how the crime was committed as well as why. "An Unholy Death" plays it straight with the murder of a novice nun in her locked cell. "Hidden Secrets" goes the classic route. A surf instructor is shot inside a shed. The murder weapon is missing, the only door is locked and the wet sand outside the only window is completely undisturbed. In "Unlike Father, Unlike Son", the Victim of the Week is murdered inside a locked jail cell behind two other locked doors. The victim in "Rue Morgue" apparently committed suicide behind a locked and bolted door. Naturally, it's Never Suicide. In "The Impossible Murder", the room was not locked, but the only ways to enter it would either have left visible disturbances (climbing to the window) or gone right past Humphrey's point of view (going up the stairs). "Melodies of Murder" is a classic locked room mystery. A musician is found shot in his dressing room, the door locked and the gun in his hand. It looks like suicide, but an old fork on the floor and a missing guitar string make DI Mooney think otherwise. "Switcharoo" begins with the team investigating what seems to be a straightforward suicide, as a woman was found in her bathtub with her plugged-in hairdryer, with both the hotel room and the bathroom doors locked from the inside, but visiting Detective Inspector Neville Parker notes that the victim was also wearing her mouthguard, which prompts him to rule out the idea of suicide. The second episode of the twelfth series sees a prepper found dead in a bunker that was locked from the inside, apparently poisoned with cyanide in his coffee even though he made a recording stating his intention to go to the police the next morning. The only door to the bunker is watched by a camera that would have shown anyone enter the bunker, but Parker determines that since the door opens inwards, someone could have passed the coffee down into the bunker from above the door without being seen on camera, allowing the team to find the killer's fingerprints on the door frame where they would never have checked otherwise.

The problem is that Saint Marie is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, a Commonwealth Realm in fact with the British monarch as head of state, and in Commonwealth countries, the ambassadors of other Commonwealth countries are called High Commissioners. Worse than that, Sainte-Marie was originally a British Overseas Territory, and a Governor had previously appeared. If it suddenly became independent between series, odd not to mention it.

Humph is considerably more sensitive, but can't resist the urge to act out methods of murder as he discusses them (complete with sound effects.) Jack Mooney doesn't get off to the best of start's with the Commissioner with his first case on the island when he tries to explain badly why they had better re-open a cold case when new evidence is revealed, and somehow manages to imply that the Saint Marie Police force is incompetent. Neville Parker mistakes Commissioner Patterson for his taxi driver, and it's all downhill from there. While the commissioner maintained respectful, if aloof, relationships with Neville's three predecessors, Richard included, he treats Neville with thinly-veiled contempt and (sometimes downright petty) hostility. Neville's many phobias and allergies don't help his case, or make his stay in a tropical climate easier.

Death in Paradise / int_f9876f7e	comment	Faking the Dead: In "Unlike Father, Unlike Son," drug trafficker Jack Harmer, while awaiting trial for shooting and killing a pastor's wife after she stumbled upon him during a drug deal, is shot dead in his jail cell by a killer that would have had to pass through three locked doors and past Dwayne and JP. As Humphrey reveals, Jack's pregnant wife and brother had conspired in an attempt to break him out of prison. Their plan was for the guard, who they'd bribed, to pull the fire alarm, after which Jack would burst a fake blood pack underneath his shirt and fake being shot. They'd then sneak him out of the jail cell to a waiting car, and then smuggle him off the island. It didn't work out as planned. What they didn't know was that the guard in question was the secret lover of the woman that Jack had killed, had in fact witnessed her murder, and sent an anonymous typewritten note to the police that had led to Jack's arrest. Seeing an opportunity for revenge, after JP and Dwayne left the cell to search the courthouse, the guard proceeded to pull out his own gun and shoot Jack for real, just before Humphrey and Florence reached the cell. In "Written in Murder", the victim and his wife hatched an elaborate plan fake the victim's death. Unfortunately for them, the victim's jilted mistress caught wind of said plan and took advantage of it to kill the victim for real. In "Lucky in Love," the 'victim' initially faked her death to punish her husband and his mistress. Her plan is to fake her own strangulation, then lure a friend of hers to discover her dead body. She even goes as far as to ziptie her own arm to cut off circulation so she wouldn't have a pulse. When her friend discovers her body, then turns to call the police, the victim gets up, knocks her out, then runs off. Making it appear as though her murderer hid the body somewhere else. The last part of the plan was to run away on a boat later that night. Unfortunately, at that same time, the friend she used discovered her and in a fit of rage strangles her for real. In Season 11's second episode, the Victim of the Week tries to frame his brother for assault with the help of his brother's wife so they can leave the island together. He accomplishes this by leaving an incriminating voice message, having the wife knock him unconscious with a golf club (the brother owns a golf course) and having the wife put the "assault weapon" in his locker. Unfortunately for him, the brother finds him (he knew about their affair but not the plan to frame him) and decides to kill him in a fit of rage. "Murder in the Stars" opens with the apparent death of an astronomer after he fell off a cliff while watching a rare stellar event. The investigation determines that the man initially faked his death to escape accusations of plagiarism, climbing down the cliffs with a rope-ladder and staging the death for the benefit of the other four people present, but once the three witnesses had left, he climbed back up to rejoin his wife, who then pushed him off the cliff for real due to her anger at him faking his reputation. In "As The Sun Sets", Ray Saunders and his right-hand man Booker fake Ray's shooting and plan a Frame-Up to incriminate Ray's son, newly-released criminal Max. Similar to "Lucky in Love", the plan involves luring a witness (Marlon) to initially discover Ray's body, then knocking out said witness, so when they wake up, it will appear as though the killer took the body elsewhere. It works perfectly, then goes horribly wrong when Max figures out the plan and unexpectedly turns up while Ray's playing dead and genuinely kills his father.

Death in Paradise / int_fd497706	type	Accidental Murder
Death in Paradise / int_fd497706	comment	Accidental Murder: Pops up a few times, like the one time two lovers were fighting over a knife until one got stabbed purely by accident. He still had the presence of mind to dispose of some evidence, limp somewhere else and make it look like he caught a burglar red-handed, to give the woman he loved an alibi and keep her husband from finding out about them. In "Tour de Murder", an argument results in a forceful shove that pushes the Victim of the Week over the edge of a bridge into a deep ravine. Attempts to Make It Look Like an Accident actually convince the police that it was murder. In "Pirates of the Murder Scene", the killer fights back against their attacker and accidentally shoves them over the edge of a lighthouse rail. The second episode of the twelfth season reveals that a woman accidentally shot a young student because she was engaged in target practice before the student showed up, and dropped her gun while the student was walking away after an argument so that a bullet fired into the student's back because the safety wasn't on.

Death in Paradise / int_fe0330fb	type	Brick Joke
Death in Paradise / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: Happens in subtle and brilliant ways. Clues about the mystery are hidden in other episodes. In "Death in a Clinic", an identity theft ring is uncovered in a private hospital. Fast forward to the next season, "Death of a Detective", one of the suspects mentions the same clinic in passing and later it turns out that the murderer stole someone's identity. In "An Artistic Murder", a critical clue is hidden somewhere in an extremely boring book. One of the many excerpts read from it is about a local bird species, the fictional San-Marie Greene, but is unrelated to the current murder. A few episodes later, "The Early Bird", the whole plot revolves around the same parrot.

Death in Paradise / int_fe61495d	comment	Grail in the Garbage: The 2023 Christmas special features a minor version of this; a house was robbed because the owners were unaware that they had a Ming vase worth approximately six million dollars, which the thieves intended to use to get the family business out of a bad financial situation.

Death in Paradise / int_ff3f8c7c	comment	Pretentious Pronunciation: In "The Perfect Murder", the snooty governor-elect of the neighbouring island Anton Burrage insists that his surname is pronounced "Bur-RAJ". The commissioner, who has known and despised Burrage for decades, says it is pronounced "Borridge" (rhyming with porridge).

Death in Paradise / int_ff9e9dde	type	Once a Season
Death in Paradise / int_ff9e9dde	comment	Once a Season: Beginning with Series 2, every finale features the DI faced with the dilemma of whether or not to return to England: Richard is offered the opportunity to be transferred back to London at the end of Series 2, and actually does go back for a while, but decides he misses Saint-Marie. Humphrey is asked to return home by his estranged wife in Series 3, and by his father in Series 4, although in the former case Humphrey decides he prefers his new life, and in the latter his father changes his mind after realising his son is a good detective. Series 5 is an exception, but Series 6 returns to it as Jack must decide whether or not to accept the offer of a permanent position on the island. In Series 8 Jack decides to go back to England when his daughter Siobhan has a personal crisis at university, and is on the ferry to the airport when he suddenly has his "Eureka!" Moment and has to abandon his trip home to solve the case, and there isn't going to be another flight back for the foreseeable future. The Commissioner is so grateful he arranges for Siobhan to be flown over. For the latter half of Season 9, new DI Neville Parker was initially just confined to the island for medical reasons for a few weeks when he initially assumed that he was just stopping in to sign off on a particular case. However, a talk about facing challenges with one of the suspects in a case inspires him to decide to remain on the island. In Series 12, Neville seriously considers leaving Saint Marie because everything on the island reminds him about Rebecca Walmslow, the woman who tried to frame him for murder as revenge for his role in her sister's death, and it really shook him up. Fortunately, by the end, he's decided to remain on the island, thanks to everyone giving him support to help him through the trauma, including the Commissioner, who, as much as he would love for Neville to leave the island, wants Neville to leave for the right reasons.
