Having completed his five-year stint starring in BBC1 crime drama Death In Paradise, Ralf Little was expected to spend more time in the US with his New York-based playwright fiancée Lindsey Ferrentino. The couple, who got engaged in 2018, had put off their wedding for a number of years, initially blaming Covid, and have instead focussed on work projects in the US, UK and the Caribbean, where Ralf, 44, spent six months a year investigating murders as lovable British cop, DI Neville Parker.

Return to Paradise will be set in sun-soaked Australia and follows DI Mackenzie Clarke as she solves a whole host of mysterious murders.

Ralf asked Charlie Stayt, 49, how long he had known Will for as the pair worked together on Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps.

At the end of last month, DI Neville Parker said farewell to the island of Saint Marie, leaving viewers in tears. His resignation was a surprise to fans, with Ralf only announcing that the show had been cancelled after the finale was announced.

Bookies are taking bets on who will be next to play a British detective out of his (or perhaps her?) More information on Saint-Marie's fictional Caribbean island.

Not only has it lost four Detective Inspectors, but it has also filled an airline with enough junior officers to walk in and out of the police station doors.
