Photographer Alleyn Griffin gives evidence about Natasha Marlowe erratic behaviour at the party. Marlowe takes the stand, in her own defence, and confesses that she has taken so much L.S.D that she has little memory of the night.

The wife of a university lecturer stands accused of perjury and perverting the course of justice. At a previous trial, she gave evidence against one of her husband's students, who was then convicted of stealing a valuable vase from the university. But the vase turned up at an auction three weeks after the student was convicted of stealing it. Where had the vase been? And did the lecturer's wife lie at the trial of the student?

Wrongfully convicted of stealing a valuable vase, Celia Alcott takes the stand. With Professor Archer committing suicide, much of her evidence is classed a hearsay. However she drops a bombshell by admitting she had an affair Archer.

Winifred Archer gives evidence and admits that the relationship with her husband was rocky but was unaware he killed himself fearing he had cancer. Victor Purbright returns to the stand and maintains Winifred Archer who sold the vase.

A Fulchester lady is accused of attempted murder after shooting a council worker who was felling a rare Black Poplar tree in her front garden. She claims that she did not aim the gun directly at the worker but merely intended to scare him and prevent him from carrying out his work in protest against the council's decision to chop down the tree.

Jonathan Fry QC is attempting to put forward, against Mrs Tressman's wishes, a plea of automatism. Mrs Tressman outlines what she can remember about what happened on the day of the shooting but is clearly in a distressed state.

Pauline Tressman demanded to plead guilty rather than have Dr. Mary Ryden give evidence. Counsel changed her mind and the doctor admitted that Mrs. Tressman's mental health deteriorated following the death of her granddaughter.

The effects of hallucinogenic drugs provide a theme in this case. Peta Best, a leading sixties fashion photographer, has been found dead in her studio with a cloth pushed down her throat. Natasha Marlow, a young model who was with Peta Best at the time of her death, is charged with murder but claims that herself and the photographer were 'freaking out' after an L.S.D. session and she would therefore have been incapable of committing murder. Light is shed on the sleazy world of pornography as the trial progresses.

Natasha Marlow is cross examinined by Jonathan Fry QC after it was revealed she threatened to kill Peta Best while high on drugs. The defence called Sister Joanna Forbush but her evidence, based on Marlow's therapy, proved problematic.
