Standing under a gazebo in a white vest on set of what looked like the middle of a jungle on the Caribbean Island of Guadeloupe.

"We’ve just broken for lunch and we’re about to get our food and er…"; Ralf started the video on Instagram.

He panned around to reveal it was pouring down with rain, the tracks were filling with water and fog started rolling in.

His co-star Tahj Miles was heard in the background, "I got water in my shoes."

Ralf hilariously added: "Ugh! It’s not what I came to the Caribbean for," and said to Tahj, "You got water in your shoes?"

"Sad times. Sad times on Death in Paradise. Eurgh."

He captioned the post: "It’s (not) always sunny in Guadeloupe… Poor @tahjmiles."

In a video a couple of days later he showed more "treacherous" conditions on set.

Wearing a mobile neck fan to keep him cool, Ralf admitted "can't show you too much of the set" as he scanned around the green scenery.

He showed off the different crew setting up for their different roles on the series.

"I can show you the treacherous way to the set," he added.

Ralf scanned the dirt path he walked up with some stones popping out of the ground, and revealed "it rained about half an hour ago and I came down here in my costume shoes, it was treacherous."

Fans on his Instagram could then see the 'DIP' signs which point cast and crew to the shooting locations.

They all had to hike up a hill and then back down the other side to get there.

Even though the trek was tough going in the hot conditions, Ralf did not want to complain about his lot in life.

"Because any time you're about to complain you remember that," as he pointed the camera to stunning view of the crystal blue sea.

"And it's all good."

Fans loved Ralf's updates from the set.

"Thank you for this, keeps me going until the new season arrives," wrote one on Instagram.

Another commented: "Can you keep doing these until next season starts."
