Is It Legal? - The Complete Series

Another classic sitcom from Men Behaving Badly's Simon Nye, Is It Legal? won the British Comedy Award for Best ITV Sitcom in 1995. Starring Imelda Staunton, Patrick Barlow and Richard Lumsden, this intelligent, searingly funny sitcom chronicles the misadventures of a team of deeply flawed individuals who man the offices of a small suburban law firm. This set contains all three series.

Newly qualified solicitor Colin enters the profession fired with idealism and a genuine desire to help people, though he hardly gets off to an auspicious start. Having accidentally killed his first client, his legal career then takes a decidedly shambolic turn - but in the company of dozy office boy Darren, skill-free secretary Alison, permanently infatuated clerk Bob and golf-obsessed, sherry-soaked senior partner Dick, his conduct is not exactly conspicuous!
