Commissioner Selwyn Patterson Replaced by Sterling Fox

Death in Paradise has recently undergone a significant shake-up with the replacement of fan-favorite character Commissioner Selwyn Patterson, played by Don Warrington, who has been a staple of the show since its debut in 2011.

Sterling Fox's Arrival and Immediate Impact

In a surprising turn of events, viewers were introduced to Sterling Fox, played by Trieve Blackwood-Cambridge, as he arrived on Saint Marie to take over from Selwyn Patterson. The brash and young Sterling wasted no time making his mark by establishing a first-name basis with his predecessor and expressing his love for the island.

Conflict on the Horizon

The teaser for the upcoming episode hints at potential conflict between Sterling and DI Mervin Wilson, played by Don Gilet, as they investigate the suspicious death of Mervin's birth mother, Dorna Bray. Sterling's approach to the case seems to clash with Mervin's emotions, setting the stage for further tension.

What's Next for Sterling Fox?

As Sterling settles into his new role, viewers are left wondering about the changes he will bring to the island and the impact he will have on the team. Will his cost-cutting measures and efficiency drive a rift within the Saint Marie police force?

Death in Paradise continues to air on BBC One and is available on iPlayer for fans to catch the latest developments.
