The drama will explore a \u201cnew adventure\u201d for the pair as they move back to Martha\u2019s hometown of Shipton Abbott on the Devon coast. There, Humphrey will tackle unique crime cases of his own \u2013 but while the procedural format may seem similar to Death in Paradise, there will be one sizeable change.<\/p>
Speaking about the new series,\u00a0Tony Jordan, writer and executive producer for Beyond Paradise, said: \u201cAt the end of the crime story in Death in Paradise, the detective gathers all the suspects together and explains what happened and who the guilty party is in an Agatha Christie fashion.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe knew we couldn\u2019t do the same thing on Beyond Paradise. We had to find something as distinct, but different.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe came up with the idea of Humphrey cracking the case and while explaining to the team and the audience, we lift him up from the station and take him back in time, replaying the crime exactly as it happened but this time with Humphrey in the scene as it\u2019s taking place.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both shows give you a puzzle and those great moments where people are sitting on the sofa together solving the mysteries.\u201d<\/p>\n As for the differences between the two shows? Jordan said that there are \u201ca lot\u201d in the personal tales of characters and crime stories. \u201cIn Death in Paradise, the majority of the story content is about the case, we don\u2019t really go into much personal detail. In Beyond Paradise its completely different.<\/p>\n \u201cHumphrey and Martha\u2019s relationship is a drama in its own right, we follow their journey throughout the duration of the six episodes. The crime story then fits in with that, but there is a huge personal story within the show.\u201d<\/p>\n Similarly, Marshall said of his new series: \u201cBeyond Paradise has the same sort of structure as Death in Paradise, but we\u2019re also a completely new show. There\u2019s some of the favourite characters from Death in Paradise, but with a whole new spin on it. It\u2019s still paradise, it\u2019s just a different kind of paradise.\u201d<\/p>\n As well as a cast of familiar faces<\/a>, the series\u2019s own lizard<\/a> and an ominous trailer<\/a>, it\u2019s safe to say that excitement for the drama is most definitely building. We can\u2019t wait.<\/p> ![\"""\"](\""https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2023\/02\/BeyondParadiseKrisMarshall-9e599e5.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413"\" "\\"\"\"\\"\/")
