Obiter is happy to announce the winner of our competition for a box set of gritty 1970s drama 'Law and Order'. Readers were asked to say which movie legal character they are most like, and why. The prize goes to Howard Culshaw, assistant solicitor at the Borough Council of Pendle, who replied: 'I am most like Erin Brockovich. But only in the privacy of my own home. At weekends. With the curtains closed obviously.' Thank you, Howard. Meanwhile, entries are flooding in for last week's competition to win a 'Damages' DVD and TM Lewin shirt - winner to be announced next week.
