Champion of the underdog and a brilliant teacher, Professor Jon Ford (Lloyd Owen, Miss Potter – film for release 2006, Monarch Of The Glen) sets up The Innocence Project, peopled entirely by a hand-picked group of law students.

His passion for his subject ignites something new and exciting in his students.

They take on cases pro bono that nobody else wants to know about, cases that people have forgotten, cases that others have given up on.

They take on 'clients' with no hope – who have possibly been wrongly convicted. Fact – sometimes the English justice system fails.

Smart and with an infectious enthusiasm, Ford's team is made up of fresh faced 19-year-old uni students who choose to make a difference while still going through the serious business of growing up.

Their job is part investigator, part lawyer - and all before they're out of full time education.
