Beyond Paradise’s Kris Marshall reveals “beautiful” reunion with former co-star

BBG News

As a dedicated gamer, let me share a heartwarming moment I recently experienced that brought back memories of my gaming days. You see, beyond the virtual worlds I often inhabit, I’ve had the privilege of being part of a remarkable cast in the movie “Love Actually.” Recently, my fellow cast member, Abdul Salis, and I were reunited, and I must say it was as magical as stepping into a parallel gaming universe. The joy and camaraderie we felt were truly indescribable, much like unlocking that elusive rare achievement in a game.

In an exciting twist, I’ve found myself working alongside my cherished co-star from our timeless Christmas classic, this time on the latest season of the captivating BBC detective series. Here, Salis portrayed a therapist, whose life took a dramatic turn when she was mysteriously poisoned.

In the well-known film “Love Actually,” they portrayed the roles of lifelong friends Colin and Tony – with Marshall taking on the character of Colin and Salis playing Tony.

On last weekend’s episode of The Project, I shared some behind-the-scenes insights about when Salis dropped by during season three of Beyond Paradise. (First person perspective: As a gamer who was hooked on the show, here’s what I learned…)

Over the past two decades, it’s been a rare occurrence for me to cross paths with Abdul, as we’ve only met once since the release of “Love Actually”.

In simpler terms, Marshall explained that acting relationships are special because they allow for seamless continuity; it feels as if you never stopped working together, creating a deeply connected and mutually beneficial dynamic which he greatly enjoys.

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but feel elated as I recall the moment when my cherished friend graced the screen alongside me. “Well,” I reminisced, “He dropped by for a guest appearance, and it’s true that time has passed, and wisdom might not have grown exponentially. Yet, we’re all still holding strong.

Currently, the actor known for his character Nick Harper on the comedy series “My Family” has expressed a willingness to reprise his role.

He expressed in an interview with Metro that his family was exceptional. If given the chance to re-create it, he’d need a setting where it truly flourished as Nick Harper was deeply rooted in his era.

As a fan, I found myself stepping into the world of storytelling at the age of 27, yet my character seemed much younger – only 19. That’s a testament to how vibrant and youthful he was. With each passing year, I too have grown less youthful, but who knows what magic might lie ahead? After all, never say never!

Beyond Paradise and Death in Paradise both air on BBC One and stream on BBC iPlayer.
