CROWN COURT – VOLUME FIVE (PG) will be released on 4th August 2008. In this fifth instalment of what has become an institution of television series, CROWN COURT continues to entertain and intrigue, showing no slowing down of paces and compromising of quality. CROWN COURT – VOLUME FIVE (PG) is a 4 – disc set.

Strangely forecasting – though utterly unknowingly – the flourishing of reality television, CROWN COURT is unique in that, members of the general public eligible for jury duty made up the jury we see in the show, and they alone, will decide the verdict. The publicity for the show at the time stated that multiple endings had been written in order to be well-prepared for whatever verdict that this real life jury might produce after deliberation.

A precursor to both contemporary legal dramas and reality court TV, CROWN COURT is sharply written and features performances from classic British talent such as the BAFTA-award winning Richard Wilson (One Foot in the Grave), Tony Anholt (Space: 1999), Dulcie Gray (Howard’s Way) and multiple award-winning actor-turned-director Adrian Shergold. This series will please those who enjoy tension-filled television that is anchored in social reality.
