Quotes:

Judge John Deed: [sentencing the producer of a TV game show after a contestant has died] Celebrity. The pursuit of the talentless, by the mindless. It's become a disease of the twenty-first century. It pollutes our society, and it diminishes all who seek it, and all who worship it. And you must bear some of the responsibility for foisting this empty nonsense onto a gullible public.

Judge John Deed

To me; a layman; I find this series thoroughly enjoyable, it may not be true to life but that does not stop it being good, and as for Rumpole of the Bailey I would rate JJD well above, as enjoyable as Rumpole is I think JJD is far more absorbing and I find his personal life and it's problems; though I must say they are slightly over the top; add to the reality, as I should think anyone Judge, jury or the executioner will all have their ups and downs in their lives, and one thing I particularly like is how his colleagues are continually trying to pull him down but JJD always manages to get the upper hand. I would recommend anyone who has not seen an episode of Judge John Deed to take look; you will be hooked.
