QC at Any Cost

Episode 1 of 5

Hell-bent on becoming QC no matter what, John Fuller-Carp employs anyone who can help him. Stars John Bird. From April 1996.

John Fuller-Carp, the Machiavellian head of chambers, is determined to become a QC and will perform almost any moral contortion to achieve his goal.

When left-wing Ruth Quirke, rumoured to be the daughter of a High Court judge, applies to join chambers at Forecourt Buildings, Fuller-Carp's imagination goes into overdrive. A hotline to the Lord Chancellor and promotion seems inevitable.

But will his "New Labour" image amount to anything..?

Starring John Bird, James Fleet and Lesley Sharp.
