Quotes:

Frost: [Sarcastically referring to Sharpe's obvious attraction to Martine Phillips] Only I was wondering if it was your moody enigmatic personality with its scintilating wit that she fancied or whether it was something more basic like sex.
D.S. Sharpe: It's sex, I hope.
Frost: Oh, well, we all live in hope.

Gripping from start to finish!

A probable serial killer is on the loose, and Jack Frost has to work against time to catch the culprit, which also sees him reunited with D.S. 'Razor' Sharpe. He also has to work, albeit reluctantly, with a glamorous behavioural profiler.

A wonderfully acted drama, with a thrilling conclusion to the case, showcases all the actors' ability, which never fails for a second, while Jack's cornering of the suspect certainly explains the title to the episode.

A Touch of Frost continues to provide terrific and thrilling drama that always convinces the viewer, and Near Death Experience simply carries that trait on. Great!
