Production
Casting
Kris Marshall was one of the most popular detectives to feature on Death in Paradise and the producers knew he resonated with audiences around the world. The producers felt audiences wanted to know what happened to Humphrey and Martha.[4] Sally Bretton also reprised her role from Death in Paradise.
Zahra Ahmadi and Barbara Flynn had both previously appeared in episodes of Death in Paradise playing different characters.
Location
The series is set in the fictional coastal town of Shipton Abbott, South Devon. A number of locations were considered, but the producers settled on the West Country as they felt that Devon hadn’t been used very often in TV drama. They decided to film in the Cornish town of Looe[5] because it has a thriving community with fishing businesses; additionally some scenes were filmed in neighbouring Polperro as well as Fowey. The fictional town is set slightly back from the coast so different storylines could be developed.[4]

Reception
Michael Hogan of The Telegraph gave it four stars out of five, proclaiming it 'superior to its mothership show' and that it was 'Charming, cheerful and just gripping enough, (the series) was the cosy crime treat we didn't know we needed.'[6] Jack Seale of The Guardian, conversely, awarded the first episode two out of five stars.[1]
