The entire third series of the television drama starring John Thaw as Kavanagh QC, one of the country's leading criminal advocates in London, who has worked his way up from a northern working class background. In 'Mute of Malice', brothers Miles and Edgar Beddoes (Anthony Calf and Andrew Woodall) each attempt to make their way in civilian life after military service in Bosnia. Edgar becomes a University chaplain, while Miles takes a job in industry, only to find himself accused of embezzlement. When Miles is shot on a weekend away with his sibling, Edgar is accused of the crime. Kavanagh has problems defending him, however, as Edgar is either unable or unwilling to speak.
