Quotes:

[Frost is questioning a pharmaceutical worker and has toothache. The worker notices, and puts some pills into an envelope]
Tristate Pharmaceutical Worker: My private reserve. Don't do anything stupid with them.
[Frost takes one out and looks at it. It is very big, about the size of a pound coin]
Frost: What, like try to swallow one?

Excellent

Two men are found dead, but something is very much amiss with both murders....Jack is reinstated as Detective Inspector after his grave mistake in the previous episode (Held In Trust), and is reunited with D.S Lawson in his quest to find the truth. Nice to see actress Sally Dexter return after nine years! It certainly is not an easy case to solve as their investigations lead them into the world of ballroom dancing!

Another Life is, again, another fine episode of A Touch of Frost, with a satisfying conclusion, and the usual gaffes (this time involving Jack's unfortunate encounter with a lollipop)! The usual strong acting from all concerned sure makes it an episode to be enjoyed.
