More about King's Counsel
Meet Sir Geoffrey Bentwood KC, who specializes in putting judges and juries to sleep while not-so-secretly longing to be promoted to the bench. His sidekick Edward Longwind takes lessons in pomposity from Sir Geoffrey. Meanwhile, Richard Loophole of Loophole and Fillibuster does his best to bankrupt his clients, whilst working his associates to death and pretending to remember some of the law he learned at school.
