Synopsis of Rumpole of the Bailey: Season 07

The seventh and final season of the seriocomic British legal series Rumpole of the Bailey offers the usual quota of six hour-long episodes, originally seen in the U.K. from October 29 through December 3, 1992, all starring Leo McKern as the immensely sloppy and irrefutably brilliant barrister Horace Rumpole. In the season opener "Rumpole and the Children of the Devil", Rumpole's favorite disreputable clients, the Timsons, are now accused of practicing Satanism. Next, it's conflict-of-interest time when a policeman is charged with falsifying a confession in "Rumpole and the Miscarriage of Justice" In "Rumpole and the Eternal Triangle", our hero grows a bit too fond of the beautiful violinist whose husband is his latest client "Rumpole and the Reform of Joby Jonson" finds Rumpole having trouble sustaining objectivity about his client, an accused thief, when his own home is burgled. "Rumpole and the Family Pride" is an Agatha Christie-like exercise, with Rumpole and his overbearing wife Hilda (Marion Mathie) visiting a cousin at his country estate, only to plunge headlong into an unsolved murder. The series ends with "Rumpole on Trial", wherein the pompous Samuel Ballard (Peter Blythe) is called upon to defend his colleague Rumpole in a delicate disciplinary hearing. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
