The Case

As I say, a very good storyline, very believable. But I wasn't convinced by the actors playing the defence counsel or his pupil, both were fairly wooden and it was hard to accept their relationship, either professional or romantic. Two of the other characters were usefully obectionable. The court scenes were well presented. A good, though predictable, ending. I quite enjoyed those few parts of Liverpool that we were shown.

In some ways this series, albeit much shorter and with fewer characters, reminded me of the Australian series Crownie, but that was far more polished with many sympathetic characters.
