Ben Daniels: Senior Crown Prosecutor James Steel

Quotes 

• James Steel : What do you think gave you the right to do this?

  Mr John Reberty : Let me tell you about Darren McKenzie, because when I found he was a perfect match, I looked into his life. He ran down a young girl and killed her. Nothing good has come of Darren McKenzie on this planet, but I changed that. When his kidney went into Joanna Woodleigh, his existence had meaning, he'd done something good for the first time in his life.

  James Steel : Do you even hear what you're saying? Darren McKenzie did not volunteer to donate. You don't get to make that choice for him.

  Mr John Reberty : I get to make those choices everyday. That's what surgeons do. The system failed her. I didn't. You might think you're better than me, but you couldn't do what I do. I have lost count of the lives I have saved, whereas you, you have never made a tough decision in your life.

• Alesha Phillips : [watching George working defense]  He's actually very good at this.

  James Steel : Did you think he wouldn't be?

• James Steel : I'm sorry, George.

  George Castle : You've done nothing wrong. You prosecuted, I defended, the jury decided.
