Capstick's Law is a British television drama series that originally aired in 1989.[7] Produced by Granada Television for the ITV network, it centred on a firm of solicitors in the 1950s.[8][9] The period drama used Russell Harty's old house in the village of Giggleswick, North Yorkshire, for filming.[10]
Edward and Madge Capstick are a happily married solicitor and his wife. The eldest son, Jonty, has just started his own practice. Their youngest son, Tony, is articled in London. It is May 1953. Eight years have passed since the Second World War ended, but changes in society are appearing and the pace of change is threatening family life too.[11]
