The arrival of a star US lawyer prompts stuffy John Fuller-Carp to copy his sharp tactics. Stars John Bird. From May 1996.
When star American lawyer Thurman Berkley arrives in chambers for a week, a culture clash seems inevitable.
But the stuffy John Fuller-Carp will do anything to win a case - even if it means adopting the rapping rhythms Thurman used so successfully in the OK Stimpson trial.
