Watch Death in Paradise Season 14: Preview

This hugely popular BBC series is back, and not a second too soon. We’re desperate for more head-scratching murder-mysteries and a tropical dose of vitamin D, as tetchy Londoner DI Mervin Wilson adapts to life on the sunny isle of Saint Marie. It’s the winter break we’re all after, and our guide below will let you know how to watch Death in Paradise Season 14 online completely free and from anywhere with a VPN.

Created by Robert Thorogood, Death in Paradise has consistently attracted millions of viewers over its 14-year run, its broad appeal ensuring multiple spin-offs, including last year’s Return to Paradise. It’s a winning combination of stunning Caribbean locations, featuring a breezy cast and colorful case-of-the week murders. Plus, the frequent introduction of new lead detectives provides a compelling burst of fresh energy.

Enter Don Gillet (Eastenders, ITV’s The Loch) as DI Mervin Wilson. Following his initial introduction in last year’s Christmas special, the holidaying Mervin was recruited to Honoré’s Police Station to help solve the case of a serial killer targeting Santas. His brusque manner and impatience to be back in busy London didn’t endear him to his colleagues. But, as he eventually confided to Commissioner Patterson (Don Warrington), he’d come to Saint Marie to reconcile with his estranged mother – a woman who he later found out had died some months ago…and was possibly even murdered.

Season 14 begins with Mervin resolved to remain on the island. The recovery of a body from a ravine rattles his colleagues, and there's the case of a game show contestant fatally stabbed while on a zip line to solve. His fellow officers have their own share of personal dramas, too. DS Naomi Thomas (Shantol Jackson) is shaken when an ex unexpectedly arrives from St Barnabas, and Darlene (Ginny Holder) decides to mentor the fresh-faced new Officer Benjamin Brice (Anthony J Abraham). But she’s not sure if she’s up to the task.
