A Touch of Frost is a classic British detective drama that follows the investigations of Detective Inspector Jack Frost, a cantankerous and unorthodox policeman with a sharp wit and a taste for gin. In season 1 episode 1, entitled "Care and Protection," Frost is called to investigate a series of burglaries in a retirement home.

The episode opens with an elderly woman named Mrs. Mandelson waking up to find her jewelry missing. The staff at the home are quick to dismiss her claims, chalking it up to forgetfulness or confusion. But after more residents come forward with similar stories, the police are called in to investigate.

Frost is assigned to the case, much to the chagrin of his superiors who view him as a troublemaker. He arrives at the retirement home and immediately gets to work, interviewing the staff and residents and gathering evidence.

One of the residents, a man named Mr. Rupert, catches Frost's attention. He seems to be hiding something, and Frost suspects that he may be involved in the burglaries. Despite the man's protests of innocence, Frost continues to pursue his hunch.

Meanwhile, Frost's personal life is also in disarray. He is struggling with his recently divorced wife and his rebellious teenage son. His gruff exterior and tendency to drink on the job have left him isolated and unloved, but he remains committed to his work and his pursuit of justice.

As the investigation heats up, Frost finds himself in danger and must rely on his wits and his instincts to stay alive. The tension builds to a satisfying climax as the true identity of the culprit is revealed and Frost finally gets the recognition he deserves.

Overall, "Care and Protection" is a gripping introduction to the world of A Touch of Frost, with strong performances and a well-crafted script that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. Fans of classic British detective dramas will not be disappointed.
