The Frost Tapes

By: Wilfred Frost David Paradine Productions Ltd
  • Summary

  • David Frost was the 20th century’s most prolific interviewer, a master of conversation with a remarkable talent for getting people to open up and spill their souls. Many of his conversations, however, have been lost—until now. Presented by his son, broadcaster Wilfred Frost, in Season One of “The Frost Tapes,” we resurrected interviews covering topics that had astounding relevance with current events in 2020. In Season Two, we’re joining David as he interviews the greatest entertainers of the 20th/21st centuries: Elton John, Elizabeth Taylor, Muhhamad Ali, the Beatles, and more. You can’t hear these interviews anywhere else.

Incredible reporting -- as relevant as ever

It's amazing to realize how little we've advanced since the 60s and 70s; humbling truly.

This is an excellent and worthwhile series, marred only by obnoxious and unnecessary modern advertising.
