Aaaaaaaaaaaaaarg!
Now they're interviewing the fiancee and the father of the deceased heiress in counsel's chambers! Counsel's just come out of court in his wig and robes. Clearly didn't bother to use the robing room at court... Cause, oh yeah, counsel dash around London in wig and gown all the bleeding time. Not! But the main point is, it wouldn't be bloody counsel in the first place! They'd be represented by solicitors. Argh!
And that's leaving aside the whole Booth and Brennan barge into the Duke's 'palace', claiming jurisdiction! Er, no. See, in England & Wales the only way you can be forced to attend an interview is at the police station, under caution, following arrest.
The pain, the pain.
It's worse that even Judge John Deed, I tell you.

It sounds worse than Criminal Justice, and that's saying something.
