Health Hazard

Dommer Deed's ærkefjende sir Ian Rochester er rasende, da han hører, at Deed er udpeget som dommer i en kontroversiel sag mod et mobilselskab. For at få skovlen under Deed vender sir Ian sin opmærksomhed mod Deed's veninde Jo Mills. Jo bliver fremstillet i retten i en disciplinærsag, anklaget for at have et upassende forhold til Deed.

Deed has two difficult new cases in his court. In one, a woman with a brain tumour claims it was caused by using her mobile phone. In another, the defendant in a hit-and-run case seems unfit to stand trial.Meanwhile, in a continuing story-line from the second series, Deed's lover Jo Mills faces a disciplinary tribunal prompted by Sir Ian Rochester and presided over by Sir Monty Everard. Both of them bear grudges against Deed, and he rides to Jo's defence.
