Ralf Little, DEATH IN PARADE actor, dropped a major show spoiler while he was on Saturday Kitchen.
Saturday Kitchen featured Matt Tebbutt as a guest host, along with actor Ralf. While Rukmini Iyer and Tim Siadatan, guest cooks on Saturday Kitchen, concocted delicious recipes, the Royle Family star sat quietly. BBC viewers were shocked when Ralf revealed a Death in Paradise spoiler. This caused the host to shout: “You’ve destroyed it for me!”
Ralf, who was attending one of the Death in Paradise production meetings, said that “the director who had worked in TV for 35 years and really knew his stuff was like, ‘Okay. Last question, Harry, is he well-trained? “Is he a good performer?”
The 41-year old explained that the lizard was a CGI effect.
Matt, aghast, replied: “Is that it?” It’s not worth spoiling! It was amazing.
Ralf giggled: “This director thought that they’ve really trained the lizard well.”
The studio’s guest chefs began to laugh, while Matt, who was shocked, continued to speak out.
“If I may, you’re just a layman looking at the show, and you’re certainly not a 35 year season director, then that was quite hilarious.”
Matt protested, “You’ve just destroyed it for me. You’ve ruined everything.”
Other BBC viewers, like Matt, were also shocked by the Death in Paradise reptile. They took to Twitter to express their disbelief.
Matt Hemmings wrote “@RalfLittle just disclosed Harry, the Lizard from Death in Paradise is CGI on @SaturdayKitchen. Weekend ruined.”
@Irenko said: “It’s unbelievable that Harry the Lizard isn’t really real.”
Stef stated: “Hell for telling Harry was CGI !!!! Love Death in Paradise, but will not be able to see it the same way as now!”
One fan @CareyD63 exclaimed, “WTF??? Harry the Lizard is CGI? @DeathInParadise # deathinparadise.”
Hilary Pearl said: “@RalfLittle, you’ve just destroyed my dreams! !
“Harry the Lizard is cgi-devastated my life will never again be the same.”
Ralf gave details of his schedule while filming in Guadeloupe, where he stated: “It is a physically demanding show. I’m up by 5.30am.”
The actor explained that his early morning wake-ups were easy to forget because he was surrounded by the ocean.
Two Pints’ star said: “You can finish your work, then you can go swimming in the Caribbean Sea.”
Matt joked, “Do you have chefs [on the show]?” I need a friend.
