sidewinder Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Sad and unexpected news for sure. I think the last thing I saw from him was a thoughtful interview he did with Dame Joan Bakewell on BBC4 a couple of months ago. Remember thinking at the time that he had aged quite a bit of late - RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Anyone remember That Was The Week That Was? Very, vaguely - fuzzy picture on an old valve B&WTV when I was a kid. I have more coherent memories of his later 'David Frost Show'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim McG Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 David Frost conducted so many great interviews. The Richard Nixon interview stands out in my mind as his legacy. Rest in Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patricia Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 My favourite David Frost bit was the spoof on a political campaign speech. He went on for a good 15 minutes and, as my mother would have said, "there wasn't one word you could take away with you." But, his cultured diction and his sincere delivery fooled the listener for the first few minutes, until you realized he hadn't actually said anything worthwhile. It was hilarious!! He was one of my favourite Brits. RIP Sir David. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
