Judge John Deed S01E02 Duty Of Care.Avi

Martin Shaw stars as Judge John Deed, a High Court judge with somewhat liberal views who is not afraid to go against the establishment in this BBC crime/legal drama.

Judge Deed's life is complicated by barrister and sometime love Jo Mills (Jenny Seagrove), his nutty, spoiled ex-wife George (Caroline Langrishe), his ex- father in law and old school judge Sir Joseph Channing (Donald Sinden), and his beautiful daughter Charlie (Louisa Clein), who is a brand new barrister.

This Episode:-
Jo Mills is prosecuting a case of a construction site manager and foreman who are charged with not taking proper precautions when a young 19 year old is killed in an accident on his first day on the job. The accused worked for Mike Briggs, a tyrannical managing director who had no time for health and safety issues and constantly pushed to get more work done. Deed agrees to take on the case and sets out to find a way to make sure the person truly responsible finds himself in the dock. He is up against government forces who think otherwise and who set out to discredit him.
