I would blame Flybe for not doing research into the airport before committing to the route. That aside, other aircraft of similar size to the dash 8 have operated in and out of Dundee for years and continue to do so, only Flybe seemed to have an issue with light aircraft. I do lay the Blame at their feet to be honest.

Am surprised no one has mentioned BHX. Route performed well when flown by Loganair for Flybe. Think it would still work given the reduction in frequency and seats on BHX-EDI and ABZ after the Flybe collapse. Maybe Loganair don't want to dilute their ABZ route in this Covid world, demand was very different when BE flew all three but in long term BHX-DND could work very well.

Loganair launches its Dundee - Belfast City route today (18 September 2020). Initially the route will operate 2x weekly with flights on Fridays and Sundays. In Summer 2021, the route will increase to 4x weekly flights with Monday and Thursday rotations added.

Surely there can't be many operators left in the market to run the Dundee to London flights with the size of aircraft required.
Seems to be the same operator doing this PSO every time its newly awarded.

DND-BHD getting hit with cheap fares and a choice of what colour aeroplane you want to fly on from EDI to BFS and BHD. It’s down to two days a week so might as well improve the services starting at LHR and running north via DND which seem to be doing quite well.

Where's the Loganair thread? Anyway they've announced that the summer through flights to Shetland from London via Dundee will operate 3 times a week next summer, up from 2.
