Larry Scott (former Love Thy Neighbourstar Rudolph Walker) was a charismatic, ambitious and sometimes arrogant barrister who divided his time between his otherwise all-white chambers and a Community Law Centre.
Larry was separated from his Jamaican wife and now in a relationship with white barrister Julie Smythe (Kika Markham).
The focus of Black Silk was on the human dimension of the stories, and many episodes featured only token sequences in court.
The series was based partly on the cases of black barrister Rudy Narayan, who acted as a technical consultant on the series, which he co-created with the celebrated Trinidadian playwright Mustapha Matura.
