flag Actor Tim McMullan returns to *Death in Paradise* as a theatre director whose Shakespeare play leads to a cyanide poisoning mystery.

flag Actor Tim McMullan returns to BBC’s Death in Paradise for series 15, episode five, playing Richard Dempster, a theatre director bringing Shakespeare’s The Tempest to a tropical island. flag During a performance, a cast member is poisoned by cyanide-laced wine, but two others who drank from the same bottle survive, baffling investigators. flag McMullan, who played Prospero in 2016, called the role “wonderful” but noted he was mostly questioned by police rather than delivering lines. flag The episode also explores personal drama involving Mervin and his half-brother Solomon, who is set to inherit their mother’s estate. flag The series airs Fridays at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
