The Final Verdict

I had to watch this in dribs and drabs as I couldn't watch it every night for fear of topping myself. As I suspected after day one, a 'not guilty' verdict was the final result. Not because they thought the men weren't guilty- but because they couldn't 'be sure they'd done it'. How can a jury ever be sure? It's one person's word against another, no wonder so many rapists (if even reported) get off. It wouldn't encorage me to go to court in that situation, and get my life picked over in minute detail by barristers with very annoying voices.
But I too would have had to say 'not guilty'. Even though in my gut I felt they were. Which is pretty horrible (even though it wasn't real). Is this 'justice'?
Ps. Stan Collymore and that guy from So Solid Crew are both cunts.

The Verdict- My Verdict

Who would let Stan Collymore and Jeffrey Archer on a jury? Is Sara Payne expected to be impartial on a rape case? Isn't the whole point of a jury that they are meant to be? I understand this is a TV show, but it's still firmly UN-reality TV.
I found the show deeply depressing. The rape testimony was very well acted and I found it upsetting. The girls on the panel took the liberal girly view. Collymore and that bloke from So Solid Crew took the side of the footballers (shocker!)
What have I learnt? Stan Collymore has an extremely annoying voice and won't keep it shut. He doesn't let anyone talk. Alex James, the pig-murderer from Blur, said fuck all. Is he being paid to be mute? That girl from Brookside also has an annoying voice. Jeffrey Archer stands too close to people when he talks to them.
What do I think so far? Are they guilty? I've not got a clue. Is this entertaining? Kind of.
