Death In Paradise has confirmed the shock return of Josephine Jobert as filming kicks off for its 10th anniversary series.

The murder mystery favourite is being shot in Guadeloupe, with Ralf Little returning as D.I. Neville Parker, the highly-strung detective who found himself taken with the fictional island of Saint-Marie.

However, it’s the comeback of D.S Florence Cassell (Josephine Jobert) who gets the island talking, as she returns to work two years since the death of her fiance – but finds it harder than she anticipated.

Throw in having to deal with Neville’s eccentricities, and she’s got a hell of a job on her hands.

Meanwhile, after deciding to stay in Saint-Marie at the end of series nine, Neville is trying to find his feet in this new way of life as best he can, including looking for romance.

The team confirmed Florence’s return with a photo of Josephine and Ralf standing side-by-side against the picturesque ocean background the show has become known for.

With a clapperboard declaring Death In Paradise season 10, it was made official that the pair were in business.

Florence’s return is not the only major change that’s happening in the force – with Shyko Amos and Aude Legastelois-Bidé leaving their role as Ruby Patterson and DS Madeleine Dumas. 

There’ll also be a new face – with Tahj Miles causing havoc as petty criminal Marlon Pryce.

Speaking on what’s in store for the series, executive producer Tim Key said: ‘We are delighted to be able to start filming and can’t wait to celebrate our tenth series with our audience.  It’s a joy to be working with Josephine Jobert again and we think the viewers will love watching her trying to get to grips with Neville.’ 

‘We are very happy to welcome Tahj Miles to the show,’ they added. ‘Marlon is going to make real waves once he arrives in Saint Marie.  

‘We’ve got some real treats for our long-term viewers as the series progresses – including some major surprises and the possibility of another returning face or two. 

‘We are determined to make this our biggest and best series yet and can’t wait to take our viewers back to Saint Marie in 2021.’ 

Death In Paradise is currently available for catch-up on BBC iPlayer.
