'Death in Paradise Christmas Special' cast 'Death in Paradise Christmas Special' FAQ What has Don Gilet said about his character, D.I. Mervin Wilson, in this year's "Death in Paradise Christmas Special"? "He's not really liked, to start with," ex-"Eastenders" star Gilet told BBC's "The One Show".

"He doesn't wanna be there, doesn't like the place, the pace of the place...

All this is working against him and against his methods. He doesn't suffer fools gladly or have much patience, he's a guy who doesn't stand still. Everything needs to be happening like that, at the pace of London, and if it's not, he gets impatient.

And that's when you decide if you're gonna like him or not because he rubs his colleagues up the wrong way." What else can I watch on BBC iPlayer? Lots – including " I Kissed a Girl ", " The Assembly ", " This Town ", " The Space Shuttle That Fell to Earth ", " The Reckoning ", " Navalny " and " The Stones and Brian Jones ".
