About this programme
2/6. A woman asks Kavanagh to ensure justice is done on behalf of her husband, who died on the operating table in mysterious circumstances - despite the surgeon's claims that he was alive and well when she stitched him up. As if that were not a tough enough assignment, the redoubtable barrister also faces the task of convincing son Matt that failing his A levels is not the end of the world. John Thaw stars with his real-life wife Sheila Hancock, Josette Simon, Lisa Harrow and Tom Brodie.
