'Death In Paradise' resumes shooting

Press Trust of India  |  London 

"Death in Paradise" has resumed filming, after it was temporarily suspended due to Hurricane Irma safety concerns.

The popular BBC show is halfway through production on series seven in Guadeloupe, which is understood to not be hit directly by Hurricane Irma, the most powerful hurricane ever recorded over the Atlantic Ocean.


A spokesperson for producers Red Planet Pictures told Spy that they were given the go ahead to resume filming on September 6.

Filming had previously been suspended due to concerns over the safety of the cast and crew, following the Guadeloupe issuing a red warning alert to all of its residents about the hurricane.

"Father Ted" star Ardal O'Hanlon took over as the lead of "Death in Paradise" from Kris Marshall towards the end of series six as Saint Marie's newest inspector, Detective Inspector Jack Mooney.
