A series of six programmes about the law and legal issues - and how they affect all of us in everyday life.
If you have ever fallen foul of the law; or tried to get it on your side; or become lost in the maze of legislation which surrounds almost every aspect of life, you may need this programme.
Nick Ross, Norma Shepherd and Michael Molyneux set out to untangle legal wrangles, make sense of new laws - and talk to people who question the old ones.

A series of six programmes

"I agree," said Poole.
"Well, just remember that when I tell you that you've got the colour of my eyes wrong."
