本纪录片讲述了因诽谤诉讼案件的引起的感情和经济代价,节目共介绍了近两年内发生的十二起相关案件。这些相关诉讼不仅牵涉到各色名人,也关系到媒体巨擘。节目不仅关注了记者和科学家关于公共卫生和法律改革的见解,同时也没有忽视勇敢揭露社会现象阴暗面的广大公众们。

Just as quickly as papers rush to press with the latest celebrity sex scandal or expose, lawyers are scrambling to court to either try and stop the stories appearing, or to set the record straight when the damage is out there.

But just what goes on in the normally notoriously private world of a libel or privacy battle, and how easy is it to clear your name, restore your reputation or defend yourself against things that have been said?

Recent actions have seen everyone from the Beckhams to Max Mosley sue over things they did or didn’t do, and legal costs and damages reach hundreds of thousands. But is the fight always worth it, and is it just the rich and famous with the money and means that get to do battle?

Through extraordinary and unprecedented access inside Britain’s biggest law firms, we follow 12 very different cases as they unfold over the course of 2 years.

Charting the emotional and financial toll a libel action can bring to both sides, claimants and defendants, we follow high-profile figures and serial suers like Uri Geller, Danielle Lloyd and George Galloway as they take on papers and companies alike. We also see journalists and scientists fighting over important public health matters and championing libel reform, as well as very ordinary people risking everything when they feel someone’s got their story very wrong.

In this episode, we follow Lembit Opik as he tries to take on the press after considering that his cheeky boy reputation may have cost him his seat in the last election; and Sheryl Gascoigne finally decides, after years of being told it was best to say nothing, that it is time to hit back.

Two controversial characters fight back over negative articles and comments which they believe create a false impression of themselves, fuelling hate mail and death threats for both.

Uri Geller pursues Britain’s biggest tabloid and an American television network over allegations about his relationship with Michael Jackson. Geller finds the Americans, with their first amendment rights to free speech, a particularly challenging nut to crack.

Plus, former Metropolitan Police Commander Ali Dizaei questions whether repeated negative articles about him were always entirely fair and accurate.

Through extraordinary access inside Britain’s biggest law firms, we follow the legal twists and turns of a number of libel and privacy battles as they unfold over the course of two years.

It’s normally a world that’s notoriously private, but across the series we get the inside spin on each case as well as the drama and human stories behind them. What prompts a person to sue or defend themselves in an action and how easy it is to clear your name or set the record straight when you think you’ve been wronged? Also, in a world where lawyers don’t come cheap and damages may be small, if indeed you get them, is it just the wealthy that get to do battle and is it always worth it in the end?

Charting the emotional and financial toll to both claimants and defendants, we follow high profile faces as well as very ordinary people risking everything to try and put things right.

In this episode, we follow two claimants as they take on much bigger and wealthier opponents in almost David v Goliath-type battles.

Richard Donovan, an ultra marathon runner and businessman who organises extreme running events and adventures, takes on Forbes magazine after they wrote what he felt was a damning and inaccurate portrayal of his North Pole marathon. We also see a small north London mosque take on a large right-wing think tank after they published a report saying the mosque had sold extremist literature.

This episode explores a new and burgeoning area of law involving privacy. Cameras follow controversial and outspoken former MP George Galloway as he takes on the News of The World over phone hacking claims, in one of the biggest scandals to rock the British press in recent years.

We also follow model Danielle Lloyd when she does battle with Carphone Warehouse after she finds out extremely private pictures were stolen from her mobile phone and touted around the papers for thousands of pounds.

This episode finds out how a young Tamil refugee is able to fight for his reputation despite having no money to do so.

Once hailed as a hero in his community after he embarked on a lengthy hunger strike to highlight the civil war in Sri Lanka, he then went to zero and even received death threats after two of Britain’s biggest tabloids said he’d faked it all by secretly eating burgers.

With the help of Britain’s biggest libel firm in his corner, we follow his fight back.
