Filming Underway for Return to Paradise Season 2

Production has officially begun on the second season of Return to Paradise, the Australian spin-off of Death in Paradise, following its success as ABC's top local drama last year. The six-part series, produced by BBC Studios Productions Australia and Red Planet Pictures, continues to follow Detective Sergeant Mackenzie 'Mack' Clarke, played by Anna Samson, as she solves new mysteries in the seaside town of Dolphin Cove while navigating complicated romantic entanglements. Returning cast members include Lloyd Griffith, Tai Hara, and Catherine McClements, with guest appearances by Danielle Cormack and musician Tim Rogers. The new season will further explore Mackenzie's unresolved feelings for her ex, Glenn, as well as her struggle to find her place as an outsider in the community. Filming is taking place in New South Wales, with the series set to air later this year on ABC in Australia and BBC One in the UK. The show will also feature returning appearances from Death in Paradise's Ardal O’Hanlon as Jack Mooney, and promises more inventive mysteries with an Australian twist.
