Overview
- Beyond Paradise will return for a fourth series on BBC One, with Kris Marshall hinting at a folklore‑tinged opener without giving plot details.
- Marshall said filming in Devon and Cornwall runs for about five months a year with 14‑hour weekdays, which often makes the four‑hour drive home unrealistic each weekend.
- He described a setup that gives him family time every other weekend and quiet weeks by the coast, renting the same place and surfing with locals.
- The show uses the Cornish town of Looe as the fictional Shipton Abbott, and Marshall said a crew of about 100 and 30 trucks can cause issues but also brings benefits to the area.
- Asked about returning to Death in Paradise, he said he would consider a one‑off appearance only because his family commitments prevent a longer comeback.
