Episode 8: Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury

After the cacophony and the chaos of the trial, the jury retire, and the agonising wait begins.

Defence Barrister Joanna Hardy-Susskind lifts the curtain on the real criminal justice system and the real people working within it - beneath the wigs, behind the uniforms and in the dock.
