Death in Paradise's Ralf Little's next move after BBC exit as fans say 'can't wait'
Death in Paradise star Ralf Little recently confirmed his next move after leaving the hit BBC show.
Ralf Little, known for his role as DI Neville Parker in the hit BBC crime drama Death in Paradise, said his goodbyes to the show in 2024.
Following a successful four-year run, he passed the baton to Don Gilet, who now takes the lead as DI Mervin Wilson.
While fans continue to relish Ralf's performances in reruns, they're keen to discover what the future holds for the accomplished actor.
Luckily, Ralf has an exciting new endeavour on the horizon. Earlier this month, Ralf announced that he will be embarking on a UK tour with his close pal and podcast co-host Will Mellor.
The pair, creators of the popular Two Pints podcast, plan to bring their show to live audiences later in the year, reports the Express.
Throughout November, the friends will be touring various locations across the country with their 'November Nonsense' tour.
Ralf and Will have been mates since their time on the BBC sitcom Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, which also starred Sheridan Smith and Natalie Casey.
The sitcom first hit screens in 2001 and continued for ten years until it ended in 2011. When they shared the news of their tour on social media, fans were quick to express their excitement.
One fan said: "Whoop just bagged second row tickets in Colchester I finally get to see my favourite podcasters."
Another shared: "Just booked for Carlisle. Can't wait." While another enthusiastic fan simply put: "Yeyyyyyyy [sic]".
One more chimed in with: "Looking forward to seeing you both in Colchester." While another added: "See you boys in Manchester! Can't wait."
Away from touring, Ralf is gearing up for his next on-screen appearance in the highly anticipated dystopian thriller, The Flaw.
The plot summary states: "Follows a ruthless Interrogator (Dawson) who is ordered by the Special Service to follow a perfect Plan to prove a Suspect (McBain) is guilty. But once the interrogation gets underway, he comes to realize that there is a flaw not only in the Plan, but also in the Regime itself."

'Brilliant' Netflix thriller starring Scottish icon but fans only have days to watch
Netflix is set to lose one of the most talked-about crime series of recent years - and viewers have until the beginning of July to catch it before it leaves the platform Netflix subscribers have until the start of July to watch one of the most discussed crime series in recent times before it departs from the platform. Comprising just four episodes, this tightly woven mini-series delivers a comprehensive psychological thriller experience in less than four hours - making it perfect for those seeking something both brief and intense. Inside Man intertwines two seemingly unconnected narratives: one tracing a prisoner on death row in the United States, and the other focused on a village vicar in England. The link between them is gradually unveiled as the plot builds suspense across continents. Audiences meet Jefferson Grieff, an ex-criminology professor found guilty of murder, who now spends his remaining days assisting in solving intricate cases from within a maximum-security prison. Simultaneously, across the pond, Reverend Harry Watling finds himself entangled in a moral and legal quandary after an unforeseen incident at his residence sparks a domino effect that quickly spirals out of his grasp. The drama was penned by Steven Moffat, renowned for his contributions to Sherlock and Doctor Who, and initially premiered on BBC One in 2022 before being acquired by Netflix for international viewers, reports the Express. The ensemble includes Stanley Tucci portraying Grieff and David Tennant playing Watling, with additional performances from Dolly Wells as a tenacious tutor, Lydia West as a journalist striving to expose the truth, and Atkins Estimond as Grieff's devoted assistant and fellow prisoner. 'Inside Man' has certainly stirred the pot since its release, collecting varied feedback from critics and audiences alike. While some raised eyebrows over the believability of its plot, a good number of viewers have lauded its bold storytelling, compelling performances, and the deep questions it delves into. An impressed viewer commented on Google Reviews: "I thoroughly enjoyed this show. I enjoy absurdism and morality plays, which is what you'll get with Inside Man. Life is absurd and people are absurd and act in strange ways all the time in real life." Another commended the series's writing and acting chops, remarking: "Utterly brilliant! I am very particular about what I watch and what I like and am a fan of prestige TV". Highlighting the show's fine craftsmanship, another viewer proclaimed: "This is prestige TV at its finest! Steven Moffat once again comes through with a riveting story and some of the best dialogue around. All the actors gave stellar performances but Atkins Estimond was the star of the show as far as I am concerned." The programme's intricate moral dilemmas haven't gone unnoticed either. Declaring it as remarkable, a reviewer stated: "Absolute genius," followed by "A four-hour long thriller and suspense. A real thriller. Sometimes doesn't matter how good we are, how amicably we live with the society, just one moment on a bad day can change and destroy our entire life and the ones we are close to." Note that 'Inside Man' will be departing from Netflix UK come July 1, and remains up for grabs streaming-wise until that date.

Legendary BBC presenter quietly bows out after almost 50 years of TV hosting
BBC and ITV sports presenting icon Steve Ryder gave his last broadcast on Sunday as he presented the British Touring Car Championship at Oulton Park for ITV4 Sports presenter Steve Ryder has announced his retirement from broadcasting after an impressive 48-year career. The 75-year-old covered major sporting fixtures for both the BBC and ITV over the course of his time on the air. On Sunday, the star was broadcasting from the British Touring Car Championship at Oulton Park in Cheshire when he revealed he would be hanging up his microphone. He was covering the event for ITV4 when he announced the news of his departure from the screen. A montage of clips was then shared showing drivers including Lando Norris, Nigel Mansell, Damon Hill, Jenson Button and David Coulthard all bidding farewell to the broadcaster. Over the years, he has hosted Sportsnight and Sports Personality of the Year, as well as the BBC's coverage of every Olympic Games between 1988 and 2004. He departed the BBC in 2005 and joined ITV where he presented coverage of Formula One, as well as the football and rugby World Cups. His final appearance proved to be a muted exit, but he has previously explained why he decided the time had come to quit. He told the Daily Mail: "The biggest emotion as you get into the last two minutes of something like that is, 'For God's sake, don't c**k it up.' "Because you'd be thinking about that for the next 20 years. I've probably outstayed my welcome. I've been hugely lucky with the places that the career has taken me. But it's close to 50 years now, so the cracks are showing." Steve famously used to present Match of the Day and was left miffed when he was replaced by Gary Lineker as the main host - admitting he had cut the former footballer out of his life. The beef began when Gary said in 2015 that he though the R&A as 'pompous' and accused them of feeling like 'superior beings'. This, in turn, provoked a furious reaction from Steve. He told the Golf Paper: "I hold Gary Lineker in the highest regard as a football presenter, but his reflections on his experiences as a golf presenter need a huge reality check. For four years, the R&A and most other observers knew that Gary was the wrong man in the wrong job. Hazel Irvine has just delivered once again at the Open presentation skills of the highest quality. Not many people can do that and Gary certainly came up short. "Roger Mosey, the head of sport, knew Gary was a golf fanatic and was further encouraged by Gary apparently volunteering for the Masters vacancy within a few minutes of my exit from Television Centre. "But if Mosey thought long and hard before offering Gary the golf job, it's even more baffling. Match of the Day is scripted and rehearsed. Golf presentation, especially at Augusta, is seat of the pants, unpredictable and demanding." Away from sport, Steve also won praise for being open about a battle against prostate cancer after he was diagnosed with the disease in October 2023. He underwent emergency surgery which stopped the cancer from spreading. He previously told BBC Breakfast: "They took one look and said, 'We're going to operate in two weeks'. "No messing around. We did Brands Hatch for ITV on the Sunday and I had the operation on the Thursday. So it slotted into the schedule quite nicely!"

Antiques Road Trip star opens up on daughter's heartbreaking health battle and family 'struggle'
BBC Antiques Road Trip star Phillip Serrell said daughter Clementine's battle has been 'difficult' and 'hard to understand' Antiques Road Trip star Philip Serrell has opened up about his daughter's heartbreaking battle with anorexia. The BBC expert has been open and honest in the past about Clementine's health struggles, despite finding it hard to understand at first. Now that she's in recovery, Clementine wants to raise awareness and support others who are facing the same challenges she's experienced. Phillip shared his own struggles to comprehend what she was going through. He said: 'A s a dad, it's been very difficult, I've found it very hard to understand. "I've spent 62 years enjoying eating and it's very hard not to say 'Just eat, it's easy'." He also reflected on the progress his daughter made, admitting she's 'come through this on her own'. But Phillip candidly admitted his family are not out of the woods yet, and there are still tough situations to navigate. He added: 'Christmas a very difficult time of year because people suffering with anorexia get booze and food shoved at them - and that's very hard to deal with." Phillip's daughter first stepped into the public spotlight with her journey back in 2020 when she took to social media to post a comparison image of herself. In one of the pictures, she was at the height of the devastating illness, and in the second recent snap, she looked happier and healthier and working towards healing, as reports Devon Live. Brave Clementine aimed to empower others with her words, and said: "Never think you can't escape." She then went on to detail her battles with anorexia and bulimia, explaining she thinks the catalyst was the end of a significant relationship. She believes the internal turmoil led to feeling disassociated from her life. She disclosed that in 2011, she made herself vomit 'about eight times' on New Year's Eve, waking up on New Year's Day "full of shame and utter self loathing". The next year, she started suffering from anorexia. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.

She went on: "That was the worst year, and Christmas, ever. It was just pure hell, with no escape. I was TOTALLY consumed by the eating disorder, addicted to it, addicted to counting calories and 'burning off' what I could. I weighed EVERYTHING. I counted the calories in EVERYTHING. I hated what I'd become but I was petrified of giving up that addiction." She said her journey to recovery has felt painfully slow at times as she added: "After a long, and at times sooooo painfully slow, recovery I'm here, where I am now... I will always talk about eating disorders, and I'll always be honest. I don't post things like this for any praise or anything like that but to show others that you can get your life back." She said she is now committed to raising awareness about eating disorders. She went on: "I will always talk about eating disorders, and I'll always be honest. I don't post things like this for any praise or anything like that but to show others that you can get your life back. And also because I genuinely believe EDs are still very misunderstood and that kills me a bit. 'This is a hard time to go through, especially if you have an eating disorder but know that there can be life on the other side. And know that you really are strong enough to get there." Antiques Road Trip is available to watch on BBC iPlayer
