Kavanagh Q.C.: Season 1

He’s the last line of defense between guilt and innocence. John Thaw (of “Inspector Morse” fame) stars as London criminal advocate, James Kavanagh, Q.C. This series takes you beyond the confines of the courtroom to reveal the tangled, though genteel, politics of the bench and the toll Kavanagh’s dedication takes on his troubled private life. Includes four episodes: “A Family affair,” “Heartland,” “Nothing But the Truth” and “The Sweetest Thing.”

John Thaw said it felt perfectly natural to do housework as widower James Kavanagh. “I’m always getting the Hoover out at home.”
