WETA UK reprises a recent season of the popular mystery drama Death in Paradise in which Detective Inspector Jack Mooney (Ardal O’Hanlon) passes the baton.

With the team in need of a new DI, enter Neville Parker (Ralf Little, left), a brilliant investigator with an incomparable intellect. The only problem is that Neville is allergic to everything and reluctant to leave his comfort zone.
