Though Beyond Paradise may have come to an end this series, you can still find Zahra Ahmadi in a gripping drama.
The actress joins Kris Marshall as Humphrey Goodman and Sally Bretton as Martha Lloyd on Beyond Paradise, playing DS Esther Williams.
She’s held the role since 2023, but the actress previously starred in Berlin Station, for its first series in 2016.
The tense American spy thriller has an A-list cast, boarding Richard Armitage, Rhys Ifans, Leland Orser, Michelle Forbes, Keke Palmer, Richard Jenkins and Ashley Judd.
The series follows Richard as Daniel Millar, a CIA officer who has just arrived at the CIA station in Berlin, Germany, where he works undercover to find a leak in operations.
