Death in Paradise star Ralf Little has shared an exciting update about season 13.

During a recent Instagram Q&A with his followers, the actor said that the upcoming batch of episodes will wrap filming in Guadeloupe on October 29, bringing it one step closer to our TV screens.

It comes few weeks after Little, who plays DI Neville Parker on the BBC crime drama, revealed that the new season will likely air in early January, following the show's Christmas special in December.

Teasing what fans can expect to see from the new episodes, he continued: "More of the same, the stuff that we know and love. We're going to try and pick up it with the tone [from] at the end of last year.

"We really tried to push the boat out with series 12. Not just a mystery every week, solving the mystery and moving on, but in the course of a series really trying to find challenges for the main characters... There's going to be more challenges [ahead] for the characters."

Meanwhile, Little previously addressed the possibility of leading a Death in Paradise spin-off similar to Beyond Paradise, which reunited viewers with Kris Marshall's DI Humphrey Goodman.

"Yeah, totally," he said during another Q&A. "I'm quite loving the fact, now that there is Beyond Paradise, there's a bit of a joke among us that like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, that there is a Death in Paradise Cinematic Universe."

Little added: "So, who knows? Maybe [there will be] more. Maybe there's going to be Death in the States, or Death in the Maldives would be quite nice."

Death in Paradise and its spin-off, Beyond Paradise, air on BBC One and stream on BBC iPlayer.
