"Rumpole of the Old Bailey," Radio Broadcast, Now With More Visuals.

Описание: Step into the smoky chambers of the Old Bailey with two timeless episodes from Rumpole of the Bailey, the beloved British legal comedy-drama series created by John Mortimer, now on YouTube (WolveMarine) and Rumble (WolvMarine)! Airing from 1975 to 1992 (and inspiring radio adaptations), the show follows Horace Rumpole, a cigar-chomping, claret-sipping barrister who defends the indefensible with irreverent wit, Shakespearean quotes, and a disdain for pompous judges—celebrating the underdog in London's criminal courts while skewering the absurdities of the British justice system. The role of Rumpole has been immortalized by two iconic actors: the gravelly-voiced Leo McKern, who brought him to life in the classic TV series with unforgettable gruff charm, and Timothy West, a radio stalwart whose nuanced delivery captured Rumpole's sly humor in BBC adaptations.In "Pearls of the Sea" (Season 6, Episode 4), Rumpole's seaside cruise turns into a floating whodunit when a fellow passenger vanishes at sea, forcing our reluctant sleuth to outwit his nemesis Judge Graves amid champagne toasts and suspicious splashes. Then, "Age of Retirement" (Season 2, Episode 6) sees Rumpole dodging his son Nick's scheme to ship him off to teach law in Baltimore, all while mounting a fiery defense for a framed art thief—proving that hanging up his wig is easier said than done. Enhanced with subtle visuals to evoke the courtroom fog without distracting from the crackling dialogue, these episodes are a delight for fans of clever satire!
