Death in Paradise's Josephine Jobert in new look at detective show
Death in Paradise star Josephine Jobert is giving "main character" energy in a new look at her character in police drama Saint-Pierre.
Jobert, who returned as DS Florence Cassell at the end of season 13 of Death in Paradise, is set to play a detective solving crimes in another picturesque location.
Set in Saint-Pierre et Miquelon, a French territory located just off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada, the show stars Jobert as Deputy Chief Geneviève 'Arch' Archambault, a detective originally from Paris.

The official Instagram page for the series has shared video from a behind-the-scenes photoshoot for Jobert's character Geneviève, with the detective wearing a black jumper and matching trousers with a beige coat.
The caption on the post from the official Saint-Pierre Instagram account reads: "Main character moments with @josephinejobert_official."
According to Saint-Pierre's logline, Geneviève finds herself working with Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Inspector Donny 'Fitz' Fitzpatrick (Allan Hawco) when he's exiled to the island after he pokes his nose into the dodgy affairs of a local politician.
"As if by fate, these two seasoned officers – with very different policing skills and approaches – are forced together to solve unique and exciting crimes," the synopsis reads.

Some grim criminal activity is concealed beneath the island's idyllic fa?ade, and the two detectives have to set their differences aside and work together.
Saint-Pierre is slated to premiere on Canadian channel CBC Television in the winter of next year, with international broadcast details yet to be announced.
Jobert and Hawco will be joined by cast members including James Purefoy as Sean Gallagher.
