GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

mc3744 I totally agree with the previous review. A funny and interesting series, with very good acting and, as usual for Acorn productions, a very good portray of the period. The only pity is that it is quite short all in all. I could have watched much more. Can't wait to see season 2. I particularly enjoyed the historical side of it. I had little knowledge on how the anglo-saxon law system evolved. I found I learnt something knew while enjoying the show. I have only one small concern on the veracity of Garrow's opponents, they all seem to be quite inept at law. I wonder if it is accurate and reflects the fact that they've never been challenged before or if it is mostly in the interest of the show.

racesgirl2000-1 This series is clever and thought-provoking. The period dress and the way that court was conducted are historically accurate and fascinating. As well as the serious cases which are considered, there are the humorous incidents which help to balance the series.Many British period dramas focus on the upper class folk. This one, by contrast, brings us face to face with the working class, with their appalling living conditions, clothing and poor hygiene.Our hero is based upon a real-life figure, William Garrow (1760-1840). He is idealistic, trying to make the law work for those who are unable to help themselves and is well sexy in this version. Thanks to him, many of the rights we now take for granted, came to be accepted.There are just four episodes of this fine series. I hope that the BBC will see fit to make more, as there is a lot more to be said.

ctyankee1 There are 4 episode of Garrows Law. I found them interesting and entertaining and also some humor.The man that plays Garrow, Andrew Buchan is first starting his law practice with Southouse/Alun Armstrong who played Brian in New Tricks. Armstrong is a kind of mentor to Garrow. Lady Sarah Hill is a woman seeking the truth and is a regular that observes cases in Court seated next to the Judge with other people that are observers.Lady Sarah and Garrows are attracted to each other in the series. Garrows wants more but Sarah does love her husband. Lady Sarah's husband gathers among the the higher ups connected with enforcing the law, legislating it and offering political appointments for favors. She dislikes some of the things her husband does because they are for the wrong reasons. Garrow and her bond for sharing the same views and values especially the application of the law.At times Garrows represents people he does not like but he wants justice for them regarding the law. Most clients have very little money to pay him but he is a fighter and willing to work for almost nothing if he believes a persons rights are violated or the person falsely accused. Laws then were not like they are now.I really like this series. The characters were liars and mean or people like Garrow and Lady Sarah, that had strong principles and acted on them. Garrows at first is gruff, loud and inexperienced in defending people and Court procedures. He is mocked by people in Court especially the Procecutor. Garrows still has many of the same mannerisms but is learning fast and is still gruff, loud, and rude in Court for all the right reasons but now he is winning cases.Garrows/Andrew Buchan carries this part well. He pauses in speech, he stares at the camera in wide open eyes and he is very handsome.Sarah Hill/Lyndsey Marshall is honorable, and does what is right even if it cost her marriage. She is clear in speech, beautiful and direct. See it if you can.
