Ralf Little’s departure from Death In Paradise has left a void in the hearts of fans. The search for his replacement is underway, and bookmakers have given their predictions. Martin Clunes, known for his role as Doc Martin, is the current frontrunner with odds of 6/1. Simon Bird of The Inbetweeners fame follows closely behind at 3/1.
Other potential candidates include Gavin and Stacey star Matthew Horne (5/1) and comedians Diane Morgan and Romesh Ranganathan (both at 8/1).
Clunes’ popularity among punters is due to his extensive television experience and the recent conclusion of Doc Martin after 18 years. It remains to be seen who will ultimately succeed Little as the lead detective, but Martin Clunes is certainly a strong contender.
