What Frost said about Nixon


More than 30 years later, Frost remembered Nixon as a surprisingly awkward figure who, while once discussing what they'd done the previous evening, asked the host, "Did you do any fornicating?". "It was amazing to discover how ... hopeless he was at small talk," Frost told CNN. "I mean, here was this incredible professional politician, a great pro. And he'd never learned small talk."

As it's played in the film, it seems to be a tactic to throw Frost off.

I'm just a bloody normal bloke, a normal bloke who likes a bit of torture.
