Guest starring: Patrick Baladi as Thomas Picton; Sasha Frost as Luisa Calderon; Will Keen as William Fullarton (en)

This disgusts Lady Sarah and Southouse and matters become worse when Garrow fights a pistol duel with Silvester.

  • Garrow is in the dock accused by Sir Arthur Hill of 'criminal conversation' with his wife Lady Sarah. The evidence against him is a combination of half truths, invention and lies, but with the moralistic Judge Kenyon, a censorious public, and Silvester's offer to defend him the truth may not be enough. Guest starring: Emma Davies as Lady Elisabeth Fox; Samuel West as Thomas Erskine; Benny Young as Judge Kenyon (en)
