Elsewhere, PC Kelby Hartford is desperate to find love and has turned to dating apps in the hope. In a first look shared exclusively with The , Kelby admits he's struggling with dating apps to his colleague Margo.

Speaking about his hope for romance, Dylan said of his character: "Kelby is on the dating now - he’s looking for love, his soulmate. He sees all these people around him in relationships and yearns for that kind of connection.

"But he’s definitely struggling with the dating . It's pretty funny because he messes up some conversations which shows just how nervous and panicked he gets. He turns to Margo for help navigating the apps and, while he stumbles at first, once he gets comfortable, I think he’ll find someone who’s lucky to have him."

He added: "It’s a sweet journey for Kelby and it’s fun to watch him grow in that area ... Kelby has evolved, especially in terms of his confidence. He’s always appreciated the praise from people like Humphrey and Margo but this season we really see him pushing himself to stand on his own two feet. He’s determined to handle the cases, whether it's with the team or flying solo.

"Kelby’s growth is evident – he’s trusting himself more and stepping up, even in difficult situations. There are moments where he takes the lead, which surprises people, but I think viewers should expect that. He’s got it in him and it’s been exciting to watch him evolve into a more confident, independent character."

*Beyond Paradise airs this evening (Friday) at 8pm on BBC One.
