Wondering whether Don Warrington’s character, Commissioner Selwyn, is leaving Death in Paradise? In the latest episode, he was laid off from his position in the wake of budget cuts. He and his colleagues tried to rescue his job but miserably failed. Though he was seen departing in silence previously, the latest stills have provided some clarity on his fate on the show.
Here are all the details.
What’s up with Commissioner Selwyn’s exit from Death in Paradise?
The newly dropped pictures indicate that Don Warrington’s Commissioner Selwyn is likely not leaving Death in Paradise.
Before the finale, the tables appear to have turned for Selwyn. Initially, after being warned of a layoff, he didn’t give up but tried several ways to save his job. He turned to the mayor for help but learnt that he couldn’t help him alter the Chief Commissioner’s decision. His colleagues tried to launch an online petition, but it went in vain. Now, in a shocking turn of events, he seems to have gotten his job back.
Moreover, the new stills feature him celebrating the news with his beloved friends, including newbie DI Mervin Wilson and Catherine Bordey. While he might have been called back to his position, it remains unclear if Selwyn will accept or reject it. Another recently dropped image showcases Selwyn near a taxi, which subtly hints at his potential departure. It remains to be seen in the upcoming episode how Selwyn’s finale story unfolds.
However, the finale teaser appears to give away what made the Chief Commissioner rethink his decision. Surprisingly, the Chief Commissioner was created to acknowledge that Selwyn had utilized his position effectively, playing a crucial role in assisting Merwin in tracking down those responsible for his mother’s death.
So, Mervin asked Sterling Fox to visit Jamaica and persuade the Chief Commissioner to reinstate Selwyn’s position. While the celebration photos have reassured fans about Selwyn’s fate, another image of his colleagues’ mixed reactions to something has sparked uncertainty. The finale is set to premiere on March 28, 2025.
