Death in Paradise spin-off Return to Paradise gets first official trailer
The new series is airing in Australia this September.
With Death in Paradise still captivating millions of viewers with each new episode, and spin-off show Beyond Paradise proving to be a huge success in its own right, it was only a matter of time before another spin-off came along.
Enter Return to Paradise, a new series in the franchise set in Australia, which has been produced by BBC Studios Productions Australia with Red Planet Pictures for ABC in association with the BBC.
Filmed in various locations across Sydney and the Illawarra coastal region, the series will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer later this year, while it is coming to ABC in Australia from Sunday 8th September.
With that release date just around the corner, a first-look trailer has now been released, which sees the show's lead detective, Mackenzie Clarke (Anna Samson), getting a frosty reception on returning home to Australia, after she left her fiancée at the altar years ago.
As she is drafted in to lead the local police force, we get our first glimpses of her team, as well as some of the cases they'll be looking to crack throughout the season.
