Paul Rumbbol has quoted on another thread missingepisodes.proboards.com/thread/1148/crown-court?page=2&scrollTo=176523 that "Noel knows many of you were disappointed about the announcement about Crown Court so we are trying it again in a NEW SLOT with three episodes back-to-back in one day from the very first episode on Thursday 7th March at 3pm! Can you spread the word? If this gets the audience levels we need then there may just be good news… We’ll show the first episode of 1972’s three-part Doctor's Neglect at 3pm, followed by episode two at 3.30pm and episode three at 4pm. Remember every Thursday at 3pm." Excellent news.

Correct, John, there were no subtitles on any of the Network Crown Court DVDs.

Correct, John, there were no subtitles on any of the Network Crown Court DVDs. When you think of how much dialogue there is ib each episode, that's quite an improvement!

Yes an excellent story last Thursday starring wonderful Freda Dowie as the slightly unhinged and mentally fragile teacher who took an 8 year old schoolboy home with her... because he 'looked so perfect'. Great acting, incisive script and superlative production . They don't make 'em like this anymore!

Regina v Vennings and Vennings (1972) parts 1-3: www.tptvencore.co.uk/search?s=vennings&pg=1&sort=Latest Stars Charles Keating, Peter Jeffrey & Michael Ridgeway. A father and son are accused of smuggling £200,000-worth of heroin into the country. "Regular readers will know of my fondness for pointing out actors who’ve been in Doctor Who, so I’ll note that Mr Jeffrey appeared twice – in 1967’s sadly lost The Macra Terror and 1978’s The Androids of Tara (by Crown Court writer David Fisher), in which he gives one of the show’s most joyous guest turns as the wicked Count Grendel." fulchestercrowncourt.wordpress.com/2017/04/22/case-5-r-v-vennings-vennings/

The Fulchester site is terrific, but I find it very hard to navigate. On 'Euthanasia': "Written by: David Fisher (1929- ) Mr Fisher would eventually write more episodes of Crown Court than anyone else, but (this being the way of things) is probably most famous for writing four Doctor Who stories for Tom Baker’s last three series. The first (and best – in fact it’s my favourite Who story of all), 1978’s The Stones of Blood, takes an unexpectedly Crown Court turn in its second half, with the Doctor donning a barrister’s wig and defending himself against deadly alien justice machines! Mr Fisher also wrote The Androids of Tara (1978), The Creature from the Pit (1979) and The Leisure Hive (1980), as well as providing the original idea that the show’s script editor, Douglas Adams, would rework into City of Death (1979), one of Doctor Who‘s all-time greats.... " Best known as 1980s Coronation Street villain Alan Bradley (another man with the killing of his partner on his mind), Mr Eden has been a familiar face on British TV since the 1950s (his first screen appearance was in Quatermass and the Pit in 1958). He played Marco Polo in seven episodes of Doctor Who in 1964 (and had a cameo in the 2013 drama An Adventure in Space and Time, celebrating 50 years of the programme). He was a regular in the BBC’s popular 60s soap The Newcomers, and guest starred in cult favourites like The Avengers, Man in a Suitcase and The Prisoner. He also got the odd leading role in movies at the bargain basement end of British cinema, like 1968’s Curse of the Crimson Altar. At the time of this Crown Court case he would have been fresh in viewers’ minds from his appearances as Inspector Parker in the BBC’s Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries." fulchestercrowncourt.wordpress.com/2017/04/18/case-4-euthanasia/
