January 24th 2024.
Hayley Mills, the beloved star of the classic film The Parent Trap, is making her highly-anticipated comeback in the newest season of Death In Paradise. The hit show, which is now on its 13th series, continues to captivate audiences with its thrilling mysteries and stunning Caribbean scenery. And this time, they're bringing in a Hollywood icon to join the talented cast.
Mills, who famously played twins Sharon and Susan in the 1961 film, will be guest starring in the BBC One drama. The 77-year-old actress has had a long and successful career, including her Oscar-winning role in Disney's Pollyanna and a BAFTA nomination. After her stint in Hollywood, she appeared on popular British shows like Good Morning, Miss Bliss (later retooled as Saved by the Bell), Wild At Heart, and Midsomer Murders. She also starred as Anna Leonowens in a major revival of The King and I and in a stage adaptation of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.
Fans can't wait to see Mills in action as she joins a star-studded line-up for the upcoming series. X Factor contestant Rachel Adedeji, West End star Richard Fleeshman, and comedian Ronni Ancona are just a few of the famous faces set to appear. The list also includes Emma Sidi from Starstruck, Emma Naomi from Bridgerton, and Kevin Garry from Ted Lasso. Singer and actress Kate Robbins, as well as former Band of Gold star Cathy Tyson, will also make guest appearances.
The BBC has revealed that the new series will kick off with the show's 100th episode and will feature Commissioner Selwyn Patterson celebrating 50 years of service before being shot by a mysterious assassin. Actor Ralf Little will be returning as DI Neville Parker, and the rest of the team will also face their own challenges. Office Marlon Pryce will confront his future, DS Naomi Thomas will go on a double date, and Catherine Bordey will find herself involved in a murder case.
But it's not all serious business on the island. The BBC promises a deadly game of bingo, a poisoning at a cookery competition, a murder during a blackout, and a mysterious death in an elevator. And for fans of the show, the recent crossover with Beyond Paradise during the finale of last season was a real treat. Creator Tony Jordan has hinted at future seasons of the spin-off, saying that they are "working on ideas" and would "love for it to go again."
