Description
A Touch of Frost is one of Britain’s most successful detective series and stars award-winning actor David Jason as Detective Inspector Jack Frost, a policeman with a knack for attracting trouble. Set in the dreary town of Denton, Frost approaches each case with his characteristic dry wit and a sense of moral justice.
A Touch of Frost Seasons 7 and 8 include:
Season 7
Line of Fire, Parts 1 and 2
The holiday season holds little cheer for D.I. Jack Frost in this action-packed two parter. A local power station worker plunges to his death on the same day his home is vandalized. A crime squad detective is found murdered and the evidence points to police corruption. Frost takes the lead in the investigation and clashes with the dead detective’s abrasive boss.
Season 8
Benefit of the Doubt, Parts 1 and 2
Frost is irritated by his new partner, who has been transferred to Denton due to a string of personal and professional problems. The two try to solve a gruesome murder of a woman’s body found on the railroad tracks. Then, a surgeon at a local hospital disappears. Next, Frost’s credibility is on the line when a man impersonating him harasses the women of Denton. And, a nervous young woman turns up on Jack’s doorstep with startling news from his past.

An Unpolished Inspector Morse, Oct 3 2005

This review is from: A Touch Of Frost: Seasons 7 & 8 (DVD)
Frost is a British policeman in a mid-sized industrial city(Denton).He is smart,brave,messy,lucky,emphatic with victims,
and dislikes authority (He calls his immediate boss "horn
rimmed Harry").The acting,photography,music,and story lines
are excellent as usual.Small comic moments appear-often related
to food.This item-like the previous one in the series-is well-
priced.As usual,Frost gets a new partner each time,and in this
series,Shirley Fisher reappears (the closest Frost comes to
having a girlfriend).They both seem to recognize that work
comes first,thus maybe allowing a longer term relationship
to develop. As usual,there are several (3?) story lines,and it
takes a bit to identify all the characters.A re-watch is helpful
here-something which I enjoy doing. Enjoy!

Frost 7&8, April 5 2010

This review is from: A Touch Of Frost: Seasons 7 & 8 (DVD)
Arrived in perfect, factory-wrapped condition in shorter time than I expected -- only about 1 week.The "Touch of Frost" series, itself, is excellent; wonderfully cast, written and performed. David Jason is an old hand -- many film credits, and just a marvelous actor. His outrage at injustice, at injury to or murder of children; his bravery, his sense of humor (wry winks, eye-rolls, and subtle sarcasm, often lost on the other characters, especially Mullett) and much more that he has put into the character of Jack Frost makes this series a superlative winner. Be aware, though, that Bristish "series" TV isn't like it is here in the U.S.; often a "season" is only a 2-parter, as is the case with 7&8, but very well worth watching. There are many good reasons why "A Touch of Frost" is one of the U.K.'s best-loved and most successful series, and Jack's legion of fans attest to that -- count me in!

The entire Frost series is a favorite. David Jason is perfect in the role. This is another great season to have added to my collection. Five more seasons to go - wish there were more!
