Regular cast
Kris Marshall as DI Humphrey Goodman
Who is DI Humphrey Goodman?
DI Goodman is the main detective on the fictional island, taking over from Ben Miller’s Richard Poole in series three. Although he has the same knack for details and crime-solving as his predecessor, unlike Poole, Goodman fully embraces Carribean life. However, Goodman is very clumsy and is never far away from an accident in a lovable Hugh Grant kind of way.
Who is Kris Marshall?
Most will know him as lovable idiot Nick Harper in BBC sitcom My Family, or as American-bound Colin Frissell in Love Actually.
And yes, he’s also very recognisable as Adam from those BT adverts between 2005 and 2011, plus as Dave in BBC sitcom Citizen Khan.
