funny?:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: i didn't realise it was a comedy:huh:

I used to love it. I recall the ominous theme tune too. They would begin with a half minute scene from the court, which would contain an appetiser for the drama o follow, along the lines of a grim judge addressing a cowed female defendant; "Are you a prostitute Mrs Beaumont?.....Are you?",or an angry middle-aged man shouting at the judge; "My daughter is NOT a WHORE!!", and then the stark, brooding theme would intone. Great fun!

I remember Crown court and i used to watch it when i was skiving from school. loved it - and Crown court.

Not very pleasent having to go for real, even when youre in the right.

It's linked in my mind with the dentists....

I had to have a fair amoount of dental work done after my face collided with someone's boot while playing rugby at school, and so Tuesday afternon's were spent, for a while, getting things sorted.

I'd come from school, wait for my mum to return from work and then off I'd go to the dentist for pain.

I have very mixed memories...:)
