Barbara Flynn, with a smile, is keeping details about the Beyond Paradise Christmas special under wraps – playfully claiming she’s not told much. However, she shared that the episode begins with a cheerful party for the team, which quickly leads to a mystery. It seems Martha is also planning a surprise!
That’s all the information we get before actress Flynn stops talking. Having appeared in many popular shows like ‘Open All Hours’ and ‘Cracker’, she understands the importance of keeping surprises for viewers of ‘Beyond Paradise’. Since the show began in 2023, Flynn has consistently stood out as Anne – mother to Martha (Sally Bretton) and the potential mother-in-law of DI Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall).
She fondly remembers Sally, explaining they shared many scenes early in the show dealing with grief over Martha’s father’s passing. This timing was helpful for her personally, as she was still mourning the loss of her own husband, and she appreciated having acting as a way to process her emotions. She believes that’s one of the best parts of being an actor.
Anne’s feelings towards Humphrey are gradually becoming warmer. Flynn confirms this, saying, “It’s true, their relationship as mother-in-law and son-in-law is a factor, but he’s genuinely a lovely person.” She adds that Humphrey’s clumsiness provides comic relief, especially because it contrasts with Kris’s natural grace. “His awkwardness is a recurring theme in the story,” Flynn explains.
As the fourth series of Beyond Paradise (a spin-off of Death in Paradise) is being filmed, producer Bella Flynn believes the show’s success comes from its broad appeal. She explains that viewers of all ages can see themselves reflected in the characters and storylines. Flynn points to a line from the upcoming Christmas episode, where a character talks about ‘being home for Christmas,’ as an example of the show’s gentle warmth, which she believes is a crucial part of its charm.
