The upcoming season<\/a> of Beyond Paradise will bring back a fan-favourite character, Kris Marshall has revealed.<\/p>\n

The Death in Paradise spin-off<\/a> sees Marshall’s detective Humphrey Goodman swapping out the sun and sand of Saint Marie for the South of England, solving murders in the fictional village of Shipton Abbott.<\/p>\n

We’ve had three seasons so far, with a fourth expected to follow the established pattern and premiere around March or April next year.<\/p>\n

And it looks like we’ll be seeing a familiar face that we’ve not seen in a while.<\/p>\n

Appearing on the BBC’s Morning Live this week, Marshall teased that there are “loads of great storylines” coming up in season 4.<\/p>\n

“We are welcoming back a very well-loved character from season 1, I can tell you that,” he added.<\/p>\n

“We’ve been doing some scenes with him today. There’s a spoiler, massive spoiler, it’s a he.”<\/p>\n

According to a note sent from producers to local Devon residents, it looks like filming is set to continue until November<\/a>, <\/p>\n

When we at Digital Spy reviewed the season 3 finale<\/a>, we called it “nearly perfect”, but noted that it would have landed better if there had been eight episodes rather than six (like the parent show has).<\/p>\n

“Beyond Paradise’s season three finale was still the show’s best,” our review reads. “Not only did it take Martha and Humphrey’s relationship to new depths, it also allowed its side characters to step further into the spotlight in a meaningful way making fans crave a season four already.<\/p>\n

“Let’s hope that with a green light comes a longer run so that viewers can really get to know Shipton Abbott’s finest on a deeper level.”<\/p>\n

Beyond Paradise and Death in Paradise both air on BBC One and stream on BBC iPlayer.<\/p>\n
