Review


Crown Court was one of the most memorable legal television dramas in the history of British television. The show presented fictional legal cases whilst the jurors were actually members of the public. Different endings were filmed to account for the verdict of the jury and this added an intensity and twist to the normal courtroom dramas of that era.

This volume contains a further twelve stories (in production order) and features compelling cases which cover a wide spectrum of what would come before a courtroom - from blackmail to GBH, from infanticide to demanding money with menaces.

Episodes:
The Medium - Regina v Purbeck
Whatever Happened to George Robbins? - Regina v Barnes
Blackmail - Regina v Brewer and Brewer
Sunset of Arms - Fitton v Pusey
Persimmons and Dishwashers - Regina v Curl and Curl
A Public Mischief - Regina v Baker and Crawley

A Crime in Prison - Regina v Ager and Lanigan

Review


A television institution that lasted for over a decade, Crown Court was a much-loved courtroom drama which, although the cases were fictional, used 'real' jurors chosen from members of the public. Multiple endings were prepared for each story, dependent on whether the accused was found guilty or acquitted of the charges, giving each story a strength and energy which raised it far above that of normal courtroom dramas.

This volume contains a further twelve stories and features compelling cases which cover a wide spectrum of what would come before a courtroom - from theft to GBH, libel to kidnapping.

1. To Catch a Thief - Regina v Halsey 
2. Just Good Friends - Regina v Beaumont
