For anyone who hasn't seen Law And Order, buy it, it's a tv landmark. It was considered so problematic at the time for its depiction of the criminal justice system ( the police & courts are explicitly portrayed as institutionally corrupt ) that it wasn't screened again on tv until a few years ago on BBC4 which is the first time I saw it. I didn't take to it the first time I saw it, it's shot in a matter of fact manner, the acting is very naturalistic & there's no music or 'frills' about it, but when I bought it at a later date on dvd & watched it again I was impressed & disturbed by it. The last play in particular ( there are 4 interlocking plays ) is a brilliant piece of tv. Written by G.F.Newman & directed by Les Blair, they teamed up again for a similarly hard look at the NHS called 'A Nation's Health', again this is tv at its very best & is highly recommended. Just bought Law And Order for £4.80 on Amazon. cheers Arthur.

Seen it before but brilliant sequence! Cortina MK1 estate was only 11 years old at the time, looks positively ancient and a wreck!! (Before clouting the Panda car!) Now 11 year old cars still look up to date!
The 2 plain clothes coppers loading the Blue Escort van weren't much cop, needed the proper Sweeney!
Could imagine Regan wanting to get his teeth into this one;
"How many motors did they use?? Check em for dabs....... before Division get their thieving Germans on them!"
"They clobbered a security guard and an officer?? Give them a glass of water, I want to talk to them!!"

I'm glad Micky started this thread if it means more people get introduced to it, it's not as well known as it should be as it's only been shown twice on tv as far as I know. Aitch appears in it as a copper along with many others you'll recognise from The Sweeney & other things.
