    Arrest & Trial

    1 9 6 3 – 1 9 6 4 (USA)
    30 x 90 minute episodes

    A crime drama show in two parts that, in the first 45-minute section, saw Detective Sergeant Nick Anderson of the LAPD (Ben Gazzara) capture a crook (“The Arrest”) and, in the second half, defence lawyer John Egan (Chuck Connors) attempted to get the ‘perp’ off the hook (“The Trial”).

    Using Los Angeles as its base locale, the series dramatised a criminal case each week.

    The combination of crime caper/cop show and courtroom melodrama has been widely imitated since, not least by Law And Order.
