This is the second of three BAILEY'S LAW episodes broadcast as part of THE WAY WE ARE series, featuring Cedric Smith as Harry Bailey, a dedicated young lawyer who rejected the plush surroundings of the downtown firms to practice high integrity law in the east end. Two prize-winning poodle breeders are furious when the court neglects to recommend a stiff sentence for a boy who transformed their stud poodle into a canine punk. Harry's defence of the young man triggers a second libel suit between the dog breeders and the band whose recording "Punk Poodle" allegedly precipitated the initial crime. Censorship becomes the issue, but it does not prevent the poodle from having his day. <30mn>
