“Death in Paradise” follows a British Detective Inspector who is sent from England to the Caribbean island of Saint Marie. Tasked with managing the local police force, he must manage cultural differences and unique problems while investigating crimes in this tropical environment.
The series combines mystery and drama against the lovely backdrop of island life. So far, for thirteen seasons, fans have loved the show. Now, they’re wondering if they’re getting more. If you’re one of them, you have to keep reading to know more about “Death Paradise” season 14.
What Happened In The Previous Season Of Death Paradise?
The final scene of “Death in Paradise” where Neville (Ralf Little) and Florence (Joséphine Jobert) appear to go on a romantic trip together is fantastic. The scene, with them sailing hand in hand, seemed to foreshadow a happy ending. However, this moment damaged Neville’s previous gesture of self-respect and fearlessness.
Throughout the series, Florence has repeatedly caused Neville emotional turmoil. Although she was open about her sentiments in Season 11, her following expression of adoration felt more like a timid admission rather than a genuine confession. Her unwillingness to fully commit puts Neville in a state of uncomfortable ambiguity.
Neville’s choice to deny Florence’s unclear offer, citing the need for a partner who shared his level of devotion, was a huge step for him. His decision to put his emotional well-being ahead of the comfort of familiar affection was a significant shift in his character.
Later in “Death in Paradise”, despite his friends’ attempts to persuade him to return to Florence, Neville ultimately chooses to follow his heart, which leads to a reconciliation with her. However, the final love gesture was understated, lacking the grand finale one might anticipate from the show’s longest-running detective.
Are We Getting Another Season?
Yes, Season 14 of “Death in Paradise” is now in production, with former EastEnders star Don Gilet playing the protagonist, Detective Inspector Mervin Wilson. The last season premiered in February, therefore Season 14 is likely to launch in February 2025 or an early release in January 2025.
It will soon be available on BritBox in the United States. Filming is presently underway in Guadeloupe, the show’s gorgeous setting.
What To Expect From It?
In “Death in Paradise” Season 14, viewers can anticipate a fresh dynamic with the introduction of Detective Inspector Mervin Wilson, played by Don Gilet. Mervin, who first appeared in the Christmas special, will be integrating into the crew, initially unhappy with Saint Marie but potentially warming to the island. Mervin’s background is unknown, but his adaptation to his new surroundings will be a central theme, we’re guessing.
Kris Marshall, who plays DI Humphrey Goodman in the spin-off “Beyond Paradise,” could make a crossover cameo in Season 14. Humphrey returned to Saint Marie in “Beyond Paradise,” although it is unclear whether he will feature in the main series.
Mervin is said to be considering asking Humphrey for help with a case. On a different note, Joséphine Jobert, who played Florence, will not return in Season 14. Jobert believes Florence’s story is complete after she leaves with Neville.

Conclusion
“Death in Paradise” continues to evolve with the introduction of Detective Inspector Mervin Wilson in Season 14. While Neville’s journey ended with a poignant, albeit understated, resolution with Florence, the new season promises fresh dynamics and potential crossover moments with Kris Marshall’s DI Humphrey Goodman.
Filming in the picturesque setting of Guadeloupe, the upcoming series will explore Mervin’s adjustment to island life and his interactions with the established team. Although Joséphine Jobert’s Florence will not return, fans can look forward to new stories and mysteries in what remains a beloved and captivating series called “Death in Paradise”.
