The RadioTimes.com poll shows that Dwayne is much-loved by fans of the show and they desperately want him to return.
Viewers were surprised when they saw Danny appear in Death in Paradises’ festival special, last Christmas.
He returned to Saint Marie to help DCI Neville Parker (Ralf Little) solve a suspicious murder.
The detective needed some help as Florence was away visiting family
Fans were left heartbroken when Dwayne left the show in 2018 after reuniting with his long-lost father, Nelson.
The new spin-off will follow Humphrey and his love interet Martha Lloyd navigating their life in rural Britain.
The actor revealed during an interview on The One Show that the series had been in talks for a while.
He shared: “The brilliant Tony Jordan wrote a couple of scripts and we got the spin-off.
“It’s very similar in its vein, the main themes are the same but it is very unique as well.”
Discussing the idea, he added: “We’re basically following Humphrey and his girlfriend Martha’s journey as they move in with the mother-in-law down in the South West.
“His new role is as the detective inspector of the local constabulary, lots of fun.”
