After a baffling, country-hopping festive special that saw former Commissioner Selwyn Patterson held at knife point by a murderous receptionist (on Christmas Day no less), the erstwhile head honcho was moved to return to his post in the Caribbean. However, after leaving his post, he’s not exactly welcomed back with open arms, with Selwyn forced to confront the impact of his absence and win back the trust of his constituents.
DI Mervin Wilson (Don Gilet), meanwhile, is determined to enjoy time with his new found family after reconnecting with his half-brother Solomon (Daniel Ward) — easier said than done as it transpires the pair have little in common. For the rest of the team on Saint Marie, it’s business as usual, with a whole host of grisly murders to solve, all while helping new recruit Sergeant Mattie Fletcher (Catherine Garton) settle in to her new position on the island.
If you like your brutal murder served with a hefty dose of fun and a tongue firmly in the cheek, this one’s for you. Read on for how to watch Death in Paradise season 15 online, from anywhere and potentially for FREE.
