Silk for me has to be one of the best legal dramas that I have seen.
This had everything, from criminal trials to highs and lows that you would probably see in a real life practice.
The acting from the cast was fantastic throughout, and Costello (Peak) was sublime. In a Male dominated chambers, she ensured that equality meant equality.
Billy (Stuke) the Clark played a wonderful part too. He was mischievous and funny, whilst Barber, Penry-Jones, Davies and Jones all played their individual roles to a tee.
When Sosanyana came into the fold, she added a spiteful dimension which gave the chambers a bit of a shake-up.
It's a crying shame that it ended in just a handful of series, as I would love to have continued watching.
I throughly enjoyed this, and for me it was just above Kavanagh QC in quality, despite John Thaw playing an epic QC in his series.
North Square is similar, but I was unimpressed by the single series - it needed more than that.
score 10/10
