  • Episode 2.Henry deals with accusations of misconduct in his latest case after offering help to an aggrieved father who believes his Anglo-Greek daughter was raped and murdered before falling to her death in Jakarta - but local police have declared that it was suicide or an accident.
    The Brief follows the work of defence barrister Henry Farmer (Alan Davies), whose complicated personal life manages to overlap into his work. With an overbearing workload, debt and alimony payments to meet, as well as being in love with the wife of a prominent politician who won't leave her husband for him, Henry is forced to set his own demons to one side to tackle cases that only he can win. The show was described by the Radio Times as an "engaging blend of courtroom drama, suspense, intrigue and humour".

    This episode is based on the Helen Smith case, a nurse working in Saudi Arabia who allegedly fell off a balcony in 1979. Her father fought for justice and at one point appeared in a magistrates court for nonpayment of council rates so that he could accuse the person he believed had been responsible for his daughter's murder. I recall that it made the headlines of the news that night on the TV.

    Alan Davies and Edward Petherbridge, Father & Son, an absolute delicious, genius casting of the BRIEF series!! Wonderful writing, creating two unique characters sharing a brilliant, sharp legal mind! And, both actors are scoring 100% as gifted & likeable actors. I adore them!!! 🤗🎭💃

      Yes, I think your right. Can’t be a silk; in other episodes when he is in crown/high court it s clear he is not wearing the right class clobber, i.e. full silk waistcoat and coat, etc. Plus he has been led by his head of chambers in at least one case.

    Of course it had to be the boyfriend. Of course it was alright for that annoying woman to assault Alan Davies by throwing hot spaghetti onto his lap and have the women in the restaurant clap in support of the attacker, and the scene is made to bring a chuckle to anyone watching it (not to me, though). But when the bf hit the victim, it was made to be brutal and to lead to her death. One attack scene is slapstick and admissable; the other one, "typical" of a man hitting a woman in anger. So cliche. It was lovely to see Edward Pretheridge. Alan Davies was better in Jonathon Creek, methinks.

      @black bird : This will shock you, but nature made humans with body hair for a reason.
      There is no good reason for women to remove theirs while men don't -- and women weren't pressured to do so until about 1915, around the time that they started to gain some freedom and economic power. Which is how backlash against women's rights *always* proceeds: The closer women get to becoming equal, the more societal pressure is heaped on them to look a certain way (so they waste precious time and energy on that instead of spending time/energy on their professional lives and their inner selves).
      AND, she wasn't smelly. AND, plenty of women who go camping shave their legs and pits.
      But hey, don't let facts get in the way of your being a sick, toad-like little incel who hates women.
