Synopsis

London's Sunday Times said Rumpole was “worthy to join the great gallery of English oddballs ranging from Pickwick to Sherlock Holmes, Jeeves and Bertie Wooster.” Here Horace Rumpole achieves one of his immortal moments when, after pinning his hopes on a four-horse accumulator and then winning the jackpot, he decides to retire from the hallowed halls of justice. But not before first speaking his mind to his long-time nemesis, the “Mad Bull” - Judge Roger Bullingham.
