Sir David Frost with his wife, Carina, and their three sons
Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, King Hussein of Jordan - just a few of the big interviews that Sir David bagged in his career. He interviewed eight Prime Ministers and seven US presidents and it was America that gave him the biggest and most famous programme of his career. His interview with Richard Nixon became legendary and was the subject of the Oscar nominated film, Frost Nixon. But he was friends with the royals as well as their interrogator and he was a guest at the wedding of Prince Edward and Sophie Rhys Jones in 1999.

Prince of Wales
His death brings to an end a career that spanned six decades and made his name a byword for TV journalism at its best. It was hello, good evening and welcome...and now it's time to say goodbye.
