Review

David Brown

Death in Paradise has had several lead detectives, all of whom have been at odds with their surroundings in some way or another. It was too hot, they were too uptight, or bumbling, or the food on offer wasn’t plain enough. You get the idea. The issue with this new spin-off is that it takes one of those awkward, oddball Brits — Kris Marshall’s DI Humphrey Goodman — and relocates them to somewhere filled with people exactly like them: Britain. Specifically, Devon. I suspect this is supposed to give Beyond Paradise a villagey Doc Martin vibe, only with mysteries taking the place of medical crises, but the necessary culture clash isn’t distinctive enough — at least not yet.
