Ted is hoping for a quick result, a man is accused of attacking an Asian shopkeeper, the mood alters when the defendant removes his guilty plea.
This is a very good episode, not one with excitement or action, this is very much a procedural courtroom drama episode, but it's a good one.
Ted Roach is once again in deep trouble, and you are left wondering if he did apply a little pressure or not, I know what I think.
We once again see how fiery Meadows is, not afraid to scream and shout, he's made an impact since joining as a regular.
What a smashing set of actors in that courtroom, a wealth of talent, including Teniel Evans and Simon Chandler, the latter getting in some practice ahead if the legalities of Judge John Deed.
Richard Graham was impressive here as the Villain, he has such a kind face, he plays a bad guy very well, I'll never forget god part in an episode of A Touch or Frost.
Very good, 8/10.
