Death in Paradise bumped from usual BBC slot in schedule shake-up

Several popular TV shows have had their airtimes changed lately, and Death in Paradise is one of them – it’s been moved from its regular spot on BBC One once more.

The latest episode of the murder mystery, season 15 episode 6, has been moved to a different time. This is because the live football match between Wolves and Liverpool will be broadcast this Friday, March 6th, starting at 7:45pm and lasting until 10pm.

Death in Paradise typically airs at 9pm on BBC One, but this time it will be shown on Monday, March 9th, at the same time.

If you don’t want to wait, you can watch it this Friday at 8:45pm on BBC iPlayer – that’s 15 minutes earlier than usual, as announced on Instagram.

Solomon badly misjudged his first meeting with his half-brother, Mervin. Feeling it was best to avoid further awkwardness, he left for Antigua to take care of some work.

Although the detective inspector was understandably frustrated with Solomon, he also admitted he shared some responsibility for why their short-lived connection didn’t work out.

Naomi convinced Mervin to travel to the island to find the person he’d fallen out with and try to fix their relationship.

But that backfired spectacularly when he was seemingly taken hostage.
