Law & Order is a series of four British television plays written by G. F. Newman and directed by Les Blair. It was first transmitted in 1978 on BBC2.

Filmed in 2008. 30th anniversary interviews with cast and crew of the 1978 BBC2 series 'Law and Order'.


A play about the law: those who keep it, those who break it and those who live off it. A Detective's Tale tells the detective's view of a crime. Detective Inspector Fred Pyle is determined to get a result following a bungled raid on a supermarket - even to the extent of 'fitting-up' someone, if it is in Pyle's interest to do so.

Jack Lynn is arrested in connection with the armed robbery. Pyle is determined to get the evidence he needs to secure a conviction.

Solicitor Alex Gladwell, brought in to represent Jack Lynn, will use any means to get his client off.

Lynn is sent down, but rehabilitation is not on the agenda.
