简介
BBC Two has commissioned a second series of Big Talk Productions’ legal comedy Defending The Guilty. The series follows Will Sharpe (Giri/Haji, Flowers), as Will Packham - an idealistic pupil barrister being shown the ropes by his cynic al, worldly-wise pupilmaster Caroline, played by Bafta Award-winner Katherine Parkinson (The IT Crowd, Humans). Initially believing his role is to serve justice, Will is regularly disillusioned as he learns to manipulate a tricky and underfunded system that refuses to fit his moral assumptions. At the same time, he’s dealing with his fellow pupils, each of them after the same single job and happy to stab each other in the back to get it. Additional cast includes Mark Bonnar (Catastrophe) as Miles, Gwyneth Keyworth (Black Mirror) as Danielle, Prasanna Puwanarajah (Doctor Foster, Patrick Melrose) as Ashley, Hanako Footman as Pia and Hugh Coles as Liam.
