8/10
Poker face

Warning: Spoilers
Nigel Planer, whose career went to the stratosphere with his role as Neil in the British comedy, The Young Ones, guest stars in this episode. I think (but I could be wrong) that Planer is the only lead star from The Young Ones to appear in Death in Paradise. Anyway, here the stakes are high with a poker match, and DI Jack Mooney (Ardal O'Hanlon) is settling in. However his daughter Siobhan (Grace Stone) left in the previous episode, so that means the DI has an extra room in his government-provided accommodation by the beach.

I've been a fan of Death in Paradise since it debuted over a decade ago, and I do wonder quite seriously really how the police photograph the suspects for their whiteboard propped up in the police station. Really, at the crime scene do they gently ask the suspects to calmly pose for the whiteboard init, I don't quite get it really. Anyway, more credit should also be given to the two loyal paramedics who turn up at the crime scene.
