Death in Paradise has finally wrapped up season 12 - and the BBC has thankfully confirmed that the show will be returning for season 13! We were thrilled to hear the exciting news - as well as the finale’s revelation that DI Neville Parker would indeed be staying on the island of St Marie for a little longer - and sat down with Shantol Jackson to chat all about it!

Although Shantol couldn’t reveal much about season 13, telling HELLO!: "I can’t tell you anything just yet - I really can’t tell you anything just yet because I don’t know yet but I’m sure it will be just as amazing or even more for season 13.

Expect season 12 or more," the star did open up about what she would like to happen to Naomi and the other characters. Check it out here…
