As the hit Irish legal drama returns, solicitor Tara Rafferty (Amy Huberman, The Clinic) is embattled but not beaten. She has built a new life for herself after leaving her cheating fiancé, Eric (Rory Keenan, War & Peace), and the high-powered law firm where they both worked. But with one of her employees betraying her and another in jail, she struggles to keep her fledgling practice afloat. Convinced that her former boss Eric s scheming father is behind it all, Tara decides to strike back. To pay the bills, Tara takes on clients whose legal problems range from deportation, to divorce from a bigamist, to a lawsuit against a convent. As she frequently faces off against Eric and her former colleagues in court, Tara s mentor Vincent (Neil Morrissey, Line of Duty) leads a high-level corruption inquiry that could endanger them both. The stellar cast also features Emmet Byrne (Burning Wishes), Fiona O'Shaughnessy (Utopia), and Maria Doyle Kennedy (The Commitments) as a formidable solicitor.

Dublin-based solicitor Tara Rafferty leaves her hen night early and makes a discovery that turns her world upside down. Leaving her fiancé Eric and his family's law firm where they both worked, she sets out on her own and inadvertently starts accepting clients out of a makeshift office in the back of a café. With the help of her unlikely team of misfits, Tara takes on a series of cases that often put her on the opposing side to her ex. Learning it is tough outside the glossy offices of Dunbar and Calloway's, and with mentor Vincent's high-level corruption inquiry making enemies at every turn, Tara realises it is not what you know but who you know that counts. As allegiances change who can she trust? And is blood really thicker than water? Starring Amy Huberman (The Clinic) and Neil Morrissey (Line of Duty), this gripping boxed set features all ten episodes from both Series One and Two, as well as behind the scenes cast and crew interviews.

Let's admit it right away, The Tribe may just be the best kids' TV show ever. To be precise, it's for older children and teenagers (and their parents will find it insightful, too), the very age group that occupies all the roles in this post-apocalyptic tale. Mixing the scenario of Lord of the Flies (except there are, y'know, girls in it as well) with the visual imagery of Mad Max and the angst-ridden psychodrama of Sweet Valley High, The Tribe tells of a near-future in which the world's adult population has been wiped out by a virus. Of course, society's infrastructure has gone, too, so the youthful survivors not only have to deal with all the usual trials and tribulations of childhood and adolescence but must also develop some form of functioning society of their own, without any form of adult intervention and with only the barest amount of technology. What happens, of course, is that all the social ills of the old world, from bullying to teenage pregnancy, are writ 10 times larger in the new. The ways in which the characters cope (or fail to cope) with these issues are both exasperating and deeply moving. --Roger Thomas
