About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want tense, character-driven courtroom drama and workplace rivalry in the British legal world; Not for you if you dislike repetitive episode structures or want neat closure, like in Criminal Justice or Luther.
Pros: gripping courtroom battles; strong character rivalries; immersive legal world | Cons: repetitive case formula; uneven clarity at times; ending feels abrupt
