British broadcaster David Frost gives us the inside story on how he secured a series of interviews with Ex-President Richard Nixon. The 1977 encounters focused on Nixon's time in office and the Watergate scandal which forced him from office. They've since been made into a Broadway play, "Frost/Nixon."
