David Jason donned a moustache and a scruffy look to play Detective Inspector William 'Jack' Frost, in his first major role after Only Fools and Horses, to a rather sceptical audience at the time, but now is one of the most popular characters on British TV.
Frost has the case of a missing girl to solve, and along with D.C. Barnard, they also uncover a 30-year-old skeleton buried in the woods. On top of that, Jack receives some devastating news....
Adapted from the book written by R.D. Wingfield, Care & Protection marked an extremely promising start for the Frost series, although you do still see a little bit of Del Boy in David Jason, who will probably never shake that role off! I personally am a massive fan of A Touch of Frost, and this episode kicked off a memorable and terrific TV police drama that I hope carries on for a long time to come.
