    • Trivia
      The number of Crown Prosecution Lawyers in the UK is approx one fifth of the number of Barristers and one twentieth the number of practising lawyers - they therefore have a high case load and less time than shown in the series to focus on individual cases, accepting of course that high profile ShowTrials would merit more involvement.

    Excellent story and well made

    Very well made and superbly acted. Held my attention from start to finish. OK the story sometimes seemed a bit too complex and lacking credibility but I was easily able to suspend disbelief. All the lead characters were on top form, and the flash backs were handled well. I felt that five episodes was just about right.
