OUTLAWS
12 x 30 minute Episodes
Distributor – BBC Worldwide
A blackly comic whistle-stop tour of the custody suites, interview rooms
and magistrates courts that constitute the world of the legal aid criminal
defence lawyer.
Our guides are arch cynic Bruce Dunbar, and his newly employed idealistic
black junior, Theo Gulliver. Through their eyes, we learned how the system
really works: the clients who are almost always guilty, the dodgy deals
to get them off, and the spurious mitigations to lessen their punishment.
Funny, angry and very un-PC, this dissection of the criminal justice
system was critically lauded and nominated for a BAFTA in 2004.
