Death in Paradise season 14 is here at last, and the team are left shell-shocked when Officer Benjamin Brice is murdered the same day he's due to start work with Honoré Police. Despite intending to return home to London, DI Mervin Wilson (Don Gilet) decides to stick around long enough to close the case — but the rest of the team are far from happy to be stuck with him after his rude and dismissive attitude at Christmas. Can they put their differences aside long enough to solve the case? Read on to find out...
The Death in Paradise episode begins with narration from Benjamin (Anthony J Abraham): "For as long as I can remember, I never felt like I belonged. My mum was in labor for 30 hours when she had me; she always said I didn't want to come out because I knew what was waiting for me, like I knew I wouldn't fit in. Growing up, I was the kind of kid who would sit in the shade doing puzzles instead of playing out, messing with my brother. After school, my mum would get to know I was more interested in doing homework than helping her. My stepdad was a bit more patient, but not much. As I got older, I started to accept that there was something inside me that was different to them."
