We've been getting questions for months, but at long last, we have an answer for those of you who've been waiting for the rest of season 3 of Beyond Paradise. BritBox has confirmed that the series will return on October 14th, with 6 hour-long episodes to be released over 6 weeks.

​

Season 3 follows DI Humphrey Goodman (Kris Marshall) and Martha (Sally Bretton) as they balance foster parenting with new challenges—including the return of Martha’s old flame Archie (Jamie Bamber). The Shipton Abbott team tackles fresh mysteries from a riverbank body to a chocolate box poisoning, while Esther (Zahra Ahmadi), Anne (Barbara Flynn), and Kelby (Dylan Llewellyn) each face turning points in their personal lives.

What we're...

​

• Watching: Makari: Sicilian Mysteries - Towards the end of summer, I always find myself running low on British TV shows (streaming services tend to offer fewer selections in the warmer months), so I've turned back to ViaPlay and MHz Choice (mostly subtitled shows) to keep things interesting. Makari is based on Italian writer Gaetano Savatteri's books, and the series follows Saverio Lamanna as he returns to his native Sicily to write a book and solve crime.
• Reading: Under an English Heaven by Alice K. Boatwright - I picked this one up free on Kindle (still free at time of writing), and it follows San Francisco academic Ellie Kent as she adjusts to life in a Cotswold village—only to become the prime suspect in a churchyard murder, forcing her to dig into decades-old secrets to clear her name. It's a first book in series, and it's well worth grabbing if you like lighter mysteries.
