Death in Paradise\u2019s Florence Cassell is well and truly yesterday\u2019s news following the season 12 premiere.<\/p>\n

In the Christmas special<\/a>, we were introduced to Sophie, who was holidaying solo on Saint Marie. After an awkward initial encounter with Neville, in which he bashed into her with a suitcase, almost crashed into her taxi and accidentally swapped their luggage, the pair wound up enjoying Christmas dinner together and clearly enjoyed one another\u2019s company<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But despite promising early signs, there was no guarantee that it would develop into anything more. This is Neville we\u2019re talking about, after all. His success rate solving grisly crimes does not extend to his love life, however hard he tries.<\/p>\n

But in tonight\u2019s episode (Friday 6th January), he had plenty to smile about.<\/p>

While sharing a drink with his colleagues at the local bar, he asked Catherine if she\u2019d heard from Sophie. The pair exchanged messages over the festive period, but their interaction was limited.<\/p>\n

Catherine explained that her guest was currently island hopping, but would be back tomorrow \u2013 and Sophie had also asked when Neville would be returning from the UK, which put a spring in his step, much to Catherine\u2019s amusement.<\/p>\n

Later that episode, the pair arranged to share a bottle of wine on Neville\u2019s porch overlooking the sea. Once again, sparks flew as the pair bonded over their shared geekery.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou are at least<\/em> as big a nerd as I am,\u201d laughed Neville. \u201cAt least!\u201d<\/p>\n

And a few moments later, they shared a passionate kiss.<\/p>\n
