Fans of the Caribbean crime drama Death In Paradise are eagerly awaiting the announcement of Ralf Little’s replacement as the leading detective. Leading actor Martin Clunes has emerged as a top contender, with odds of 6/1 according to Betfred. Other potential candidates include Simon Bird (3/1), Matthew Horne (5/1), Diane Morgan, and Romesh Ranganathan (both at 8/1). Clunes, known for his roles in Men Behaving Badly and Doc Martin, is a popular choice among punters. While Simon Bird remains the current favorite, Clunes’ odds are expected to improve in the coming weeks. Death In Paradise will air a Christmas special this year, followed by a new series in 2025.
