When did Line of Duty’s Adrian Dunbar star in Death in Paradise?

Line of Duty’s Adrian Dunbar guest-starred in one episode of Death in Paradise in 2011.

He played the character of Aidan Miles in two episodes – Amongst Us and Music of Murder – of the crime drama.

In his two episodes, a young woman was found murdered in her bed with 30 coins in her mouth.

Officer Dwayne Myer’s (played by Danny John-Jules) police shield was also found under her bed, initially making him a suspect in the case.

The official synopsis for the episode reads: “Dwayne ends up embroiled in a murder investigation when a piece of incriminating evidence is found at the scene of the crime.

“Can Richard (Ben Miller) solve the case and meet a deadline that means he will finally get what he wants – a return home?”

An investigation by Detective Richard Poole and his team found the victim had been living under a false name and under protection as an informant of London’s Serious Organised Crime Agency.

Detective Richard Poole believed the killer was still on the island looking for incriminating documents the victim had.

In the episodes, Dunbar guest-starred alongside Johann Myers as Sully, Ray Fearon as Curtis, Robbie Gee as Reward, Rebecca Scroggs as Michelle Bouchant, Sarita Choudhury as Avita, Kieth Duffy as Eddie and David Sterne as Neville.

Dunbar also starred opposite the show’s main cast including Elizabeth Bourgine as Catherine Bordey, Ben Miller and DI Richard Poole, Sara Martins as DS Camille Border, Danny John-Jules as Officer Dwayne Myers and Gary Carr as Officer Fidel Best.
