Benedict Cumberbatch plays the young Horace Rumpole in this second stellar collection of cases, also starring Timothy West as the older Rumpole. 'Rumpole and the Man of God': It is 1959, and Rumpole must defend a clergyman accused of shoplifting who, although he didn't commit the crime, is curiously reluctant to be cross-examined. 'Rumpole and the Explosive Evidence': It is 1960, and Rumpole and Hilda have a baby son, Nicholas. Rumpole defends a well-know safe blower and exposes the underhand behaviour of a senior police officer. 'Rumpole and the Gentle Art of Blackmail': Rumpole returns to his Oxford college to defend a young gardener accused of blackmail. 'Rumpole and the Expert Witness': Rumpole is asked to defend a GP, Dr Ned Dacre, who is accused of murdering his wife, Sally.
