A Touch of Frost: Series 6 [2003]
![A Touch of Frost: Series 6 [2003]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/5125H3CVGHL._SL160_.jpg)
The A Touch of Frost - Series 6 four-disc box set contains the entire sixth season of this award-winning cops and crime drama. David Jason stars in the lead role of Detective Inspector Jack Frost, and he is joined by Bruce Alexander, who plays the incredibly officious Superintendent Norman Mullet. The show is set in a fictitious town called Denton and, while each episode contains at least two plots related to violence and/or murder, there is not a lot of graphic violence. Episodes in this series include: "Appendix Man"; "One Man's Meat"; "Private Lives"; and "Keys to the Car". A widowed, cranky work-addict, Frost is constantly under pressure to meet targets and keep bosses in the division off his back--particularly Superintendent Norman Mullett, who is fastidious when it comes to doing things 'by-the-book'. Mullet (nicknamed "Horn-rimmed Harry" by Frost) is obsessed with following rigid policies, while Frost prefers to let himself be guided by his innate copper instinct. Mullet abhors the regular habit Frost has of breaking the rules--like when he searches suspects' homes without a warrant--and becoming emotionally involved in cases. But there isn't a whole lot he can do about it, seeing as Frost earned the respect of the Chief Constable when he received the George Cross for Bravery. The constant run-ins between the two definitely provide for some comic moments in this award-winning series.

Synopsis
Great but this is start of the sound effects people
Review date: 2008-03-09 Rating: 8 out of 10
Another great series - I do not think there is a bad one of 'Frost'. However, although the sound effects are almost kept under control in this set, it was the beginning of the unnecessary and almost infantile sounds behind certain scenes in this series. They really jar and interfere with the programme. It seems as if contemporary producers feel a compulsion to put in these sounds - it is almost as if they have a quota they must put in. I do wish the would not. It makes the scenes very corny. Hence the four and not five stars.
