Crime Quote by Paterson Joseph
“Each case - each story - is interesting in itself. I think that's what 'Law & Order: U.K.' maintains and that's why it can go on with whoever's doing it, because the story is key - not the soap opera, the lives of the policeman or the barristers. It's about the actual story of the crime itself - how did it happen and who was guilty.”
