Rumpole?s ?She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed?
refers to a 2,000-year-old sorceress with snake-like grace
in She, a novel by Sir Henry Rider Haggard.
Connoisseur of cigars, cheap hootch and the works of Wordsworth, the self-righteous Rumpole (played by Leo McKern) often runs afoul of his peers, the head of chambers and nearly every judge he encounters in his quest to defend both the downtrodden and criminals. Considered one of the finest television series ever, this classic served as the model for countless law dramas that followed. Set 1 includes all 12 episodes from the first two seasons in original order, plus Rumpole's Return, the 1982 two-hour season-opening special for Season 3.
