I remember Frost; his bits were a staple for viewing when I was still growing up.
A few years back, there was a movie called "Frost/Nixon". Frost didn't come off all that well, but Langella as Nixon was magnificent.
Which leads to the thought that Frost, (Like Nixon), isn't so much remembered for what he did, but for what people remember of what they thought back then, of what he did.

Farewell;

Eustace

Sorry to hear that...

My memories of Frost are TWTWTW, 1962-63. Raw, hard hitting, satirical take-down of politians. Only lasted a few years before the Beeb scaredy-cats pulled the show.

Also US version '64 and '65.
