Frost on Coward

Produktbeschreibung

Premier playwright of his generation, actor, composer and singer, by 1968 Noel Coward had reached an unassailable position for many people as the epitome of wit, style and flamboyance. In this relaxed and candid chat with David Frost, recorded in colour at theMayfair Theatre in September 1968, Coward discusses his successes and failures, favourite speeches that he has written, Churchill and Roosevelt's disagreement over 'Mad Dogs and Englishmen' and his definition of success.One of the triumvirate of Frost programmes that dominated ITV weekends in the late 1960s and early '70s, Frost on Friday concentrated on current affairs - often creating the headlines, as well as reporting on them. Made at a time when David Frost was hosting a chat show in the US and then jetting back to the UK to do three shows over the weekend, Frost on Friday concentrates this energy into forty minutes worth of incisive and insightful commentary on current affairs as well as a number of remarkable interviews with often controversial, high-profile public figures.
