SILK
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 8 @ 7:00PM & 11:00PM
Martha Costello’s prosecution of an attempted murderer should be a slam-dunk, but will justice be served? As Martha and Clive have their Silk interviews in competition for the QC appointment, the scales appear tipped. And as Martha and Clive oppose one another in a high-profile murder trial, Martha’s ambitions and fate hang in the balance.
Maxine Peake and Rupert Penry-Jones (Persuasion, The Thirty-Nine Steps) star as two barristers facing off in the competition of their professional lives, the prestigious appointment as Queen’s Counsel, while working high-stakes cases amidst the rivalry, tension, and intrigue on the front lines of criminal law.
