1. "The End of Law" (two-hour special episode; 25 April 2001)
- Kavanagh is acting as a Recorder at Southwark Crown Court. Lord Cranston (Nicholas Le Prevost) pops in for a conversation during a trial for shop-lifting. Would he like to become a Judge? He asks Foxcott and his daughter for advice.
- Elsewhere, Aldermarten is prosecuting Harry Hatton (Robert Pickavance) for the murder of Katya Zimanyi (Rachel Woolrich), a Hungarian escort in the Mortimer Hotel. The defendant is served by Miss Swithen (Samantha Bond), a Solicitor Advocate. After losing the trial she asks Kavanagh for help with the appeal, but passes out after a diabetic attack. But Lord Cranston asks him not to get too involved – so of course he takes on the appeal. Soon a mis-carriage of justice starts to look like a state cover-up involving the intelligence community. Kavanagh gets given the alternatives of the appeal or being sworn in as a Judge.

Famous quotes containing the word series:
“Life ... is not simply a series of exciting new ventures. The future is not always a whole new ball game. There tends to be unfinished business. One trails all sorts of things around with one, things that simply won’t be got rid of.”
—Anita Brookner (b. 1928)
