Series 3, Episode 5 - Baby Dolls
When Mr. Fenner appears in court to answer charges arising out of the manufacture of baby-doll nightites Judy is put forward by the defence as a material witness. Unfortunately the material rips, and the shapely blonde is forced to seek refuge behind the law itself - much to the delight of the judge.
