Episode synopsis
"In matters of great importance it's style not sincerity that counts. In law, in politics, in the church... not just in the theatre... actors and performers dominate. In fact, we all play our respective roles - we all act." John Mortimer, in his double role as playwright and lawyer, tries to unmask us all.
