They will be using transcripts from an actual murder trial and will be restaged word-by-word. Will they reach the same verdict as the original trial?
For series 2, Radio Times preview reads: “A word-by-word restaging of a real-life murder trial, in which a young mother finds herself in the dock after stabbing her boyfriend in the chest with a kitchen knife. She says it was self-defence - but the ultimate decision lies with the jury.”
