A first-look trailer has arrived for Beyond Paradise Season 4. Kris Marshall returns as DI Humphrey Goodman, and cases are unveiled ahead of the premiere.
Trailer revelations
The clip introduces a character played by Vincent Franklin. He warns Humphrey the force must downsize and forces a decision.
Humphrey must consider losing Esther, Kelby, or Margo. Those roles are played by Zahra Ahmadi, Dylan Llewellyn, and Felicity Montagu.
The footage also teases a potential murder investigation. That would mark a rarer, darker case for the series.

- An alleged sighting of a vengeful mermaid at sea.
The synopsis adds that Humphrey and Martha will search for a new home. Humphrey also faces an impossible choice at the station.
