Just watched this today and this was an amazing mini-series; I was hooked from the beginning, listening to the evidence presented at the trial and all the stories that centered around certain members of the jury and their families. Johnnie Donne was hot and of course I kept my eye on him the most, but the other stories were just as compelling. Just a side note, the actor who plays Rose Davies' (the woman Johnnie is interested in) husband is Mark Strong who played Archie in "RocknRolla". I thought I had recognized him and I had to look it up to be sure and he was the same person. I also recognized the young black single mother Marcia; she was in "Love Actually" and played the prime minister's (Hugh Grant's) assistant Annie.
Stay tuned because when I go through the many pics I took from this film (at least four hundred per episode and there were six) and then I will post them here.

Cool!!! Yay, Leppard, I swear you are becoming our resident Gerry expert! Way to go girl!!! I don't know if I am an expert, but it's fun to watch films of his when he was younger and this one is a gem. I am still waiting for "One More Kiss" which I should get around the twentieth or twenty-fourth of this month and then, of course "RocknRolla" on the twenty-seventh.

I was GAH GAH over Johnnie. Still am. My fist fan fic was based on him. "The Jury" comes second only to POTO...and that's only because I saw Erik first. G's portrayal was haunting. That character's wanting was so....palpable. I cannot eat when I watch the Jury or Phantom because I literally still get butterflies. I am so glad I grabbed the Jury on Amazon when it was still forty bucks. I treasure it.

This was a great role for him; he was so amazing, it gave me chills to watch him. Didn't hurt that he looked so sexy with the curly hair, beard and mustache.

I think Gerry keeps a beard cause he hates shaving everyday, I really do. I bet if he were a woman he's constantly have hairy legs and an overgrown bush. Love him though.
