Ruth says she is honoured to be invited back to film the drama on the sun-drenched island of Guadeloupe.

She said: "I've been here since April and it's the second week of filming which is going brilliantly.

"It's a little odd to have Christmas trees in 36 degrees heat but it's a wonderful experience and it's such a brilliant cast and script."

The BBC tweeted today: "Filming has started on a feature-length Death in Paradise Christmas special, and we hear it's loaded with mystery, intrigue and surprise..."
