Beacon Hill

The Million Dollar Gate (1x8)

:

Lively, well played active episode, brimming with the life of the household, downstairs and up, written with a flair for the period and the series characters by Allan Sloane. Chauffeur Brian, beset with money troubles and ambition, becomes the dupe of a cool operator in the basement of the State House, and is arrested for illegally transporting films of the Dempsey-Carpentier fight across state lines. What is even more spectacular is the fact that Rob — self-pitying Rob — is actually talked into taking on Brian's case, the first time he's functioned as a lawyer since the war.
