Storyline
Featured review
Hard hitting - when UK TV had the guts to confront the GOV
Four films - following the cop - the criminal - the lawyer - then the prison sentence - caused trouble for the BBC when it was broadcast - because it showed a pretty bent system - and it was right. Gov not happy .
Brutal, sad, and important TV - made when the BBC was the envy of the world and drama was important - a way of highlighting societal injustice. That time has gone.
