Sunday Best: Law of the Amazon
Sunday 4 & 11 May 2003, 1.30pm

Clive Anderson travels the Amazon in a mobile courtroom.

Clive Anderson

It's 6 a.m. in a village deep in the Brazilian jungle, and already the temperature has sailed past 90 degrees. Frogs groan like foghorns, the sun-kissed Amazon River glides along a few yards away, and insects swoop through the rustic wooden pavilion that's doing temporary duty as a courtroom. Clive Anderson leaves the comfort of the English legal system to go on an Amazon river journey with a Judge, to find out how justice is taken to some of the most remote places in Brazil - by floating court.
