The American

Available for 30 days

When star American lawyer Thurman Berkley arrives in chambers for a week, a culture clash seems inevitable. But the stuffy John Fuller-Carp will do anything to win a case - even if it means adopting the rapping rhythms Thurman used so successfully in the OK Stimpson trial. A run-of-the-mill GBH gets the full transatlantic treatment. Clive Coleman’s sitcom about the questionable practices of a group of barristers. John Fuller Carp .... John Bird Hilary Tripping .... James Fleet Ruth Quirke .... Lesley Sharp Vince .... Jonathan Kydd Thurman Berkley .... David Harewood Producer: Paul Schlesinger First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in May 1996.
