The Beyond Paradise star revealed a little of what we can expect in season 2.
Beyond Paradise fans, it seems as though we’ve got a season full of some juicy storylines to look forward to as filming for the second season continues to get under way.
Series regular Dylan Llewellyn, who stars in Beyond Paradise as PC Kelby Hartford, chatted exclusively to RadioTimes.com at this year’s National Television Awards.
When asked about what fans can expect from season 2 of the Death in Paradise spin-off, Llewellyn said: “I feel like the stakes are higher so I think that’s always good. I think it’s a bit more amped up this season.”
But just what could be explored in the new season?
For now, specific series plot details remain under wraps but will of course continue following detective Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) after his relocation from the Caribbean island of Saint Marie to Shipton Abbott, a fictional town in the South West of England.
The show focuses on Humphrey’s detective work as well as his personal life, which has seen him and his fiancée Martha Lloyd (Sally Bretton) deal with heartbreaking fertility troubles, which took a toll on both.
The BBC has already teased that season 2 investigations will include “a shocking crime on a steam train, an arson attack predicted by a medium and the baffling disappearance of the local fishing legend”.
On the announcement of season 2 filming, Marshall said: “Shipton Abbott is such a wonderful location to call home for a while and it’s a delight to join up with my fellow police team for another batch of weird and wonderful cases, and to see what’s in store for Humphrey and Martha in the next chapter of their lives.”
