Loyal followers of Beyond Paradise <\/a>have caught a sly nod to Death in Paradise’s<\/a> beloved detective Neville Parker, played by Ralf Little,<\/a> within the new spin-off’s latest episode. The show is drawing to a close this Friday, with fans eagerly anticipating how the storylines for Humphrey Goodman (portrayed by Kris Marshall) and Martha Lloyd (Sally Bretton) will pan out.<\/p>\n In the most recent airing, the former Saint Marie detective found himself entangled in a mishap involving skydiving. His original plan was to join Martha’s mother, Anne (played by Barbara Flynn), but an unforeseen injury meant she couldn’t jump, leaving Humphrey to go solo.<\/p>\n Typically, the bumbling Humphrey didn’t quite make the intended drop zone. Instead, his skydiving instructor got accidentally knocked out, resulting in Humphrey dangling precariously from a bridge via his parachute straps.<\/p>\n This isn’t new territory for the klutzy Humphrey; he experienced a comparable debacle in Beyond Paradise’s premiere episode, where he found himself suspended from a tree instead, reports Devon Live<\/a>.<\/p>\n During this humour-filled escapade, sharp-eyed viewers remarked on an homage to the once skydive-fearing Neville Parker.<\/p>\n On a Facebook fan group, one eagle-eyed enthusiast probed: “Was it me or was there a little nod to Neville Parker and his utter fear of skydiving with Humphrey taking on the task?”<\/p>\n Echoing the catch, another affirmed: “Yes, partly that and partly just Humphrey being Humphrey. Remember the first time he met Esther? Stuck up that tree.”<\/p>\n A third fan quipped: “Hanging off Tamar Bridge.”<\/p>\n Ralf Little, famed for his role as Neville Parker in Death in Paradise, exited the series last year, with Don Gilet<\/a> stepping in as the fresh-faced DI Mervin Wilson.<\/p>\n Viewers will remember how Neville was petrified of practically everything on the island and had a diet strictly limited to chicken and chips.<\/p>\n The fate of Beyond Paradise’s third series hangs in the balance, but the teaser for this Friday’s instalment reads: “When nurse Lucy vanishes on her way to work, suspicion falls on Josh Woods – Kelby’s rival.”<\/p>\n It goes on: “However, after Josh receives a chilling voicemail, the team starts to suspect that something far more sinister is at play. In the recording, Lucy can be heard shouting ‘devil” followed by a beastly growl.”<\/p>\n The synopsis tantalises: “Could the legend of the Devil’s Hump hold a vital clue to solving her disappearance? As the case intensifies, Humphrey finds himself torn between the personal and professional.<\/p>\n “With Rosie’s birthday fast approaching, he and Martha are determined to throw her the perfect party.”<\/p>\n READ MORE: ‘Charlotte Tilbury’s new double-ended lip liner makes my lips look like they have filler’<\/a><\/p>\n Like this story?
