Great series, I like British detectives

It's an entirely different Frost BTW, IIRC they did tell what his George Cross was awarded for, and it's nothing military.
And besides, the colonel is named John, while the detective is named Jack. Also, John frost would have been somewhere in his late 70s/80s in the time period the detective series was aired.
Still, an awesome detective series
