The first case for Crown Court was an untransmitted pilot. Featuring a hospital negligence case, it had many differences to the regular programme, including no jury, and was eventually screened on satellite television years later.
A continuation of the prior episode in which the widow of a man who died on the operating table is suing the hospital where her husband was treated for negligence.
This story of a rape trial was originally scheduled to air as part of the third series in February 1974. It was pulled from broadcast at late notice, though has since been shown on satellite channels and appeared on DVD releases.
Doris Davies says her daughter told her she been raped by Mikkis Lianos and the pair went to the police station. Dr. Hosain confirms that her bruises were in line with a assault. When it was learned she was pregnant the child was aborted.
Mikkis Lianos tells how he invited four girls, from the key-side, to his yacht. He later took Linda Davies back to his hotel where they had sex. He tells the prosecution nobody turns him down but denies hitting her but agrees he bit her.
