Info Post Time- Meet DI Humphrey Goodman
Jan. 6th, 2024 02:07 amMeet Humphrey Goodman!

Death in Paradise TV Show was in production by BBC in the UK. It is a crime comedy-drama created by Robert Thorogood and is a joint UK and French production. The cast is predominantly British/English and the majority of the show is filmed on the Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe.
The show follows UK detectives who have been sent to the small police outpost on the Caribbean island of Saint Marie (fictional) and the work they do at the Honore Police Station. Throughout the series, a total of four different Detective Inspectors have come to the island and the show is about their process of adapting to the unique and vastly different life on the island as they figure out their place on the island and among their team on the small and tight-knit team.
The show starts off in season one with Detective Inspector Richard Poole (Ben Miller) being sent from the Metropolitan Police in London to investigate the death of a police officer on the island. At the start of season three, a new detective inspector is sent to the island to replace Richard Poole. DI Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) appears in 30 episodes of Death in Paradise. The other two DIs to appear on the show after DI Humphrey are Jack Mooney (Ardal O'Hanlon) and Neville Parker (Ralf Little) who is still currently acting DI in the show as of 2023.

The running theme for Humphrey’s time on the show is his bumbling and ‘messy’ habits and disorganization showing just how unlikely he is as a skilled and highly successful DI. He solves cases that seem impossible and despite of, or at times because of, his unique and often unorthodox approach and way of looking at things, is able to unlock the clues needed to solve the case. His knack for crime-solving coupled with the stammering, stumbling, and bumbling makes Humphrey a popular character in the show.
Humphrey in all his clumsy brilliant glory!!!
You watch the show during Humphrey ’s seasons thinking “How on Earth could this guy ever possibly capture a murderer?” and yet he does and seeing how he does it and what mischief and mess he gets into in the process is what keeps you watching each new episode to see just how he manages to do it this time!
