Death in Paradise has broadcasted the surprising exit of series normal Official Marlon Pryce (Tahj Miles), who denoted the occasion with a heartwarming embrace with considerable Commissioner Selwyn Patterson (Wear Warrington).
Throughout the course of recent years, Marlon has turned into an essential, darling installation on the BBC series, with his development from unimportant criminal to accomplished cop one of the show's biggest triumphs.
At the point when he made his presentation, the person was a young hustler who had been arrested countless times, giving Sergeant JP Hooper (Tobi Bakare) a lot of meaningless evasion, including stealing his police identification, before finally being caught.
Then, instead of handing him a prison sentence, the commissioner enlisted Marlon on the Young Offenders Police scheme, which offered him a chance for reclamation.
Marlon had a rough start, refusing to treat his circumstances in a serious way and pocketing cash implied for the office's motorbike fix. In any case, subsequent to pleading for one final possibility, his transformation genuinely started - and the skill set he'd gained from his previous lifestyle even proved to be useful.
Dissimilar to some other official, Marlon knew precisely how certain types of criminals worked, with his eccentric methods cementing him as a critical piece of the group, in turn broadening his colleagues' horizons, and creating the space for him to frame a solid bond with the Commissioner.
Of course, that didn't stop saucy Marlon from pushing his karma, which included trying out various nicknames for a profoundly unimpressed Selwyn and offering DI Neville Parker (Ralf Little) some fairly immediate opinions. But, Marlon's special persona also had its benefits.
He carried a refreshing new flavor to the group, allowing Neville to find more humor in his own life, and encouraging old buddy DS Naomi Thomas (Shantol Jackson) to break out of her usual range of familiarity.
His engaging reactions to the most baffling cases were always a success, and one of many attributes that will be definitely missed by his friends and colleagues who took extraordinary measures for him in his final episode.
After he explained that he would be accompanying younger sibling Jocelyn (Miai Leonie Phillip) to Kingston, Jamaica, where she had won a scholarship, Naomi and Selwyn were saddened that there were no employment opportunities for him at another police force in the city.
The issue might have been fixed excessively easily when the commissioner rejoined with JP to secure Marlon a job all things considered, however we can pardon this. Allowing him to drop out of police work would have been completely the incorrect method for saying farewell.
Still, it was a goodbye that we didn't see coming, and it's simply too early. All things considered, Marlon was especially instrumental in cracking this week's homicide mystery, with the casualty being his old associate Beam (played by Holby City star Fellow Henry).
While it was enjoyable to see Marlon's previous lifestyle crash into his new one once more, his work on this case reminded us just the amount he has changed. Gone is the lethargic chap who simply wore the uniform, stood back and watched. In his place is an accomplished official who jumped into activity to capture an executioner.
Also, those final activity scenes might have prepared for Marlon's next part. After last year's setback, when he disregarded senior counsel and took his sergeant's test too soon, it would have been perfect for Death in Paradise to show the amount Marlon has worked on in the interim, with a successful second endeavor.
While JP's return was the ideal send-off for him, bringing the person round trip, there was still so much left to investigate as he said his goodbyes.
We just expectation that Marlon will one day return to the island with a high-flying, yet regularly humorous, update.
