Josephine Jobert as Florence in Death in Paradise (Denis Guyenon)

We might be used to seeing Josephine Jobert as DS Florence Cassell in Death in Paradise, but the star has swapped St Marie to Saint-Pierre for her new crime drama, and we couldn't be more excited to see it when it airs in 2025! Here's everything we know about the show so far…

What is Saint-Pierre about?

The story follows Donny 'Fitz' Fitzpatrick and Deputy Chief Geneviève 'Arch' Archambault, played by Akkan Hawco and Josephine respectively.

The official synopsis reads: "After Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Inspector Donny 'Fitz' Fitzpatrick digs too deeply into a local politician’s nefarious activity, he is exiled to work in Saint-Pierre et Miquelon (the French Territory nestled in the Atlantic Ocean just off the coast of Newfoundland).

"Fitz’s arrival disrupts the life of Deputy Chief Geneviève 'Arch' Archambault, a Parisian transplant who is in Saint-Pierre for her own intriguing reasons."

When will the show be released?

Coming to Canada's CBC in winter 2025 - with other territories release dates to be confirmed, we couldn't be more excited to find out more about the exact release dates - so watch this space! Fans have been full of praise for the first look clips, with one writing: "These two are the best!!!! Looking forward to the series," while another person added: "Need this in my life! I love Saint Pierre and Miquelon!"
