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, The Frost Tapes joins David as he interviews the greatest entertainers of the 20th and 21st centuries.

In this episode - Elton John.

Spanning more than four decades, David Frost’s interviews with Elton range from his darkest hours - including the depths of his drug addiction - to the happiest days of his life. Here’s the complete story of how a timid kid named Reginald Dwight became a rock 'n' roll legend.
