Silk is superb viewing Silk is superb viewing! Maxine Peake is a passionate, brilliant defence barrister who cleverly advocates for her clients, generally winning her cases with her in depth research & convincing advocacy of her clients who are innocent until proven guilty.
The series focuses on Barrister Martha Costello's fascinating cases & her application to become a Silk. We learn of the lives, loves & cases of the barristers in this sensational series.
Terrific story lines, top calibre acting - love Martha (did I say that), even Billy is mesmerising, though generally corrupt, yet still an appealing character. A really engrossing, captivating series that realistically delivers excellent, interesting storylines every episode.
So regret that Silks ends with Season 3!
Would happily have been engrossed through more seasons, feeling very involved with the Silk characters well into the future!
Truly great legal drama!
