The first in the new series of David Frost Emmy award winning shows recorded in New York and Hollywood.
Tonight David Frost talks to Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor about their work and life together.
Burton: 'I think the turning point in my life was meeting Phil Burton (my stepfather) when I was a small boy. Otherwise I would presumably have become a miner like all my brothers, and because of my plausibility and glibness would obviously have become a miner's agent, thereby a Member of Parliament and a more outrageous rogue than I am now. But life has been extremely kind to me: I'm rich, I'm reasonably well known and I have a sort of housewife who looks after me who's not bad.'
Burton recalls his childhood in Wales, tells of some amusing early experiences in the theatre and predicts his life as an Oxford Don next year: 'One of the things I want to see is Elizabeth giving high tea to the undergraduates with a low cut dress, wearing diamonds in her ears and one through her nostrils.'
('Delightful, great, stunning, smashing' ...the return of David Frost: page 6)

Six true stories of people who survived against all odds

As an airline pilot, Henri Bourdens had flown to every corner of the globe. But his real ambition was to sail around the world. Three years ago it looked as though he and his wife Jose would realise this dream - until their yacht was wrecked on a desert island in the Arafura Sea. They had a Bible and Shakespeare - and even gramophone records. What they didn't have was food, or any hope of rescue. How do 20th-century castaways cope with total isolation and the prospect of almost certain death?

A Celebration by Angus Wilson

Charles Dickens, who died 100 years ago, was known in his own lifetime as The Great Inimitable. Never in the history of literature has a writer been so loved and respected during his lifetime - and after. The author of Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist and David Copperfield was a person of many contradictions. Immensely high-spirited and energetic, he was also pessimistic about the state of Victorian society and could be hypocritical in his dealings with his fellow men.

In his celebration of Dickens, Angus Wilson, himself a distinguished novelist and lecturer, shows how the different threads in his life and character were reflected and resolved in his novels.
