frost off to sunnier climes?

So Al-Jazeera are in talks to sign David Frost to their TV station, eh? That'll be the weirdest thing I've heard today, then.

They've been poaching people from all over including a Granada Tonight presenter and a producer from the same.

It's worth remembering that prior to the BBC launching its Arabic TV service, the beeb had a deal to train Al Jazeera journalists. All this came under the World Service so is funded (and approved) by the Foreign Office, not the license payer.
