Despite having to wait a little longer than anticipated for the Death in Paradise finale, the BBC has released pictures teasing Selwyn Patterson's fate.

If you want to wait for the finale, look away now, as there are potential spoilers ahead.
It looks like the beloved Commissioner, played by Don Warrington, won't be leaving the Honoré Police Department after all.
And thank goodness because with the rate of crime on the island, they need all the help they can get.
In the previously released teaser for the season 14 finale, Selwyn reveals that they've offered him his job back.
And new pictures show Selwyn celebrating the news with his friends and colleagues, including Don Gilet's newbie DI, Mervin Wilson, and Élizabeth Bourgine's Catherine Bordey.

After his supposed replacement, the unbearably smug Sterling Fox, rubbed everyone up the wrong way, we're not surprised.
Though the station and the community worked hard to persuade the chief to keep Selwyn, ultimately it was his work on Mervin's mother's case that appeared to do the trick.

Fans can breathe a sigh of relief – at least for now, because even though the beloved Commissioner has been offered his job back, there's no guarantee he'll take it.
In fact, one picture for the new episode shows cast members Gilet and Shantol Jackson (Naomi Jackson) having a mixed reaction to something.

We'll have to wait until next week's finale to find out – one week later than fans may have expected due to BBC One's Red Nose Day coverage.
