First series of Peter Moffat's barrister drama goes out on a high
Tuesday, 29 March 2011
Mafioso chic for budding QCs Martha Costello (Maxine Peake) and Clive Reader (Rupert Penry-Jones)
Will Silk make it to series two, or will it feel the wrath of BBC One's mad axeman, Danny Cohen? The former, we fervently hope. Despite some implausible incidents and occasionally silly plotlines, Peter Moffat's battling-barristers drama reached the end of its first series looking stronger than when it started.
