An ambitious barrister navigates moral dilemmas, mentorship, and courtroom chaos while defending clients who challenge her ideals.
Episodes
Will Packham is an idealistic pupil barrister - or idealistic for now. His pupil-master Caroline thinks he is a gutless snowflake. Can Will hold onto his principles and prove he has what it takes?
Over the course of two days, Will has to defend a would-be murderer, keep a young slam poet out of custody and fetch Caroline a range of pastries.
As Will grapples with whether to tell his girlfriend about his recent indiscretion, his new-found notoriety throws up a juicy opportunity. Meanwhile Caroline wonders how much to reveal about a particularly unappealing client.
Caroline and Will take on a last-minute case, only to find themselves in a battle with the clock, a skittish victim and an underfunded system to bring a horrible criminal to justice.
Caroline and Will have to defend a man with an unusual obsession, and also get to know one another a little better.
An idealistic young barrister is shown the ropes by a worldly mentor.
