The primary dynamic that established the show's long-term formula was the friction and eventual respect between Poole and the local Honoré Police Station team: Death in Paradise (TV Series 2011– ) - IMDb
The series introduces us to Detective Inspector Richard Poole (Ben Miller), a fastidious, suit-wearing, grumpy London cop who despises sun, sand, and small talk. He is sent to the fictional island of Saint Marie to train the local police force, only to be immediately trapped there when a murder case demands his unique, logical mind. Paired with the warm but impulsive DS Camille Bordey (Sara Martins) and the well-meaning Commissioner Selwyn Patterson (Don Warrington), Poole reluctantly solves a series of locked-room mysteries while dreaming of a decent cup of tea and an English drizzle. deathinparadises01all
