The BBC has announced what will replace Beyond Paradise in its Friday night slot, as the fourth series of the cosy crime drama concludes tonight, Friday, May 1, at 8pm on BBC One.
Next week, on Friday, May 8, the 7.30pm slot will be filled by an hour-long special edition of Question Time, hosted by Fiona Bruce. The programme will be a post-election debate featuring a panel of politicians and other guests facing questions from the audience.
Following Question Time, at 8.30pm, BBC One will broadcast 'David Attenborough's 100 Years On Planet Earth', a 90-minute live event from the Royal Albert Hall honouring the legendary broadcaster on his 100th birthday. The show will feature wildlife stories, reflections from friends and colleagues, and music from Attenborough's favourite programmes performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra.
Before these replacements air, viewers can enjoy the series four finale of Beyond Paradise. In the episode, during the town's annual pirate festival, Geraldine Desai's maritime exhibition is set ablaze and a centuries-old treasure map belonging to pirate Elias Cutler disappears. The episode also sees Humphrey anxious about a potential leaving do as Mr Smith prepares to step into a new role.
