However, for the star himself, there\u2019s no competition between Humphrey and Archie, with the latter being the obvious better fit for Sally Bretton\u2019s Martha<\/a>.<\/p>\n Speaking with RadioTimes.com<\/a> and other press, Bamber was asked who would be better for Martha, to which he said jokingly: \u201cArchie obviously. All day long. She\u2019d have a much better life with Archie. He\u2019s a man of means, he\u2019s infatuated by her. I\u2019m a bit partisan here, but yeah, I don\u2019t see what she sees in him [Humphrey].<\/p>\n \u201cKris is lovely and everything and Humphrey\u2019s great. But no, that boat needs a lick of paint, it needs a lot of work done on it. [I\u2019m] not sure on a local detective\u2019s salary he\u2019s going to be able to pull it all together and I know Archie could get it done overnight, with air conditioning and everything.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans have been wrapped up in the story of Humphrey and Martha\u2019s move to Shipton Abbott since the series began, with the first episode airing the same night as the last episode from Death in Paradise<\/a> season 12.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n Fans have wondered whether there could be a crossover on the cards between the two shows in the near future, and Marshall certainly suggested this could be the case<\/a>.<\/p>\n Speaking to\u00a0RadioTimes.com<\/strong> exclusively, he said: \u201cWatch this space. But I also want it [Beyond Paradise] to be its own standalone show. But never say never.\u201d<\/p> It certainly seems like there could be more opportunities for a crossover in future seasons, as co-creator Tony Jordan has said he\u2019s already started writing future episodes<\/a> before season 2 has been officially commissioned.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cI hope so, I\u2019ve started writing it! Ever the optimist, I\u2019m not even waiting to be commissioned. We\u2019ve got loads of stories that didn\u2019t make the cut for season 1, loads of great areas.\u201d<\/p> ![\"""\"](\""https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2023\/03\/423494-f920a1b.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413"\" "\\"\"\"\\"\/")
