Frost – the final interview airs on Al Jazeera English on Friday, 4 October

FROST-BERNAL

Broadcasting legend Sir David Frost’s final ever interview – with Hollywood actor Gael Garcia Bernal –  will air on Al Jazeera English on Friday, 4 October 2013.

Sir David passed away on 1 September 2013 in the midst of the second series of The Frost Interview, a return to his Frost/Nixon roots of in-depth intimate interviews. The current series saw him interview Buzz Aldrin, Garry Kasparov, Lewis Hamilton and Bangladeshi premier Sheikh Hasina.

The previous season of The Frost Interview contained highlights such as Paul McCartney revealing for the first time that he did not blame Yoko Ono for the break-up of the Beatles; Archbishop Desmond Tutu talking about his “anger with God” during apartheid; and Bollywood icon Aishwarya Rai slamming press criticism of her post-pregnancy weight gain.

Sir David had been with Al Jazeera English since its launch in 2006, interviewing a host of politicians and celebrities, including Tony Blair, George W. Bush, Tayyip Erdogan, George Clooney, Robert De Niro, Amitabh Bachchan, Shane Warne, Roger Federer and Martina Navratilova.

Al Jazeera English aired a tribute episode containing some of Frost’s best moments with the channel, which can be viewed here. Catch up with other episodes at The Frost Interview homepage.
