- TriviaSome streaming services inexplicably cut the episodes from about 55 minutes, down to the more usual 42-ish minute viewing time, meaning a lot of the viewers have completely missed several hours of the series. If you have only seen the 42 minute versions, it's worth finding the uncut episodes.
- GoofsThe police will typically conduct an initial interview of all the suspects/witnesses as a group. In real life the police would interview any witnesses separately so as to avoid any possible coordination of their stories.

Featured review
An exceptional programme, Needs a second series!!!!
Death in Paradise is very easy to watch, even if you despise the old fashioned workings of the likes of Miss Marple and Poiroit you can grow to love this murder mystery.
Set in more sunnier climbs than your usual crime drama, the quirky Caribbean police force combined with some brilliant acting from Ben Miller (The hapless, yet genius detective)this has all the recipe for a fun loving watch that isn't as dark and dreary as other such shows allowing for the thrill of the chase as the team track down the evidence in their ramshackle police hut and jungle 4x4 (not as classy as your usual detective company car)
All in all a brilliant series that is brimming with rich and colourful characters and story lines that captivate the imagination as this somewhat old genre is taken to new territory. Whether you watch one episode in a bit of spare time or you decide to emerse yourself with all 8 episodes, Death in Paradise does not disappoint and hopefully will return for a second series with even more Carribbean Crime!
