I rather like the Wigs and Gowns. Adds gravity to the proceedings.
Perhaps makes the Crims. think a bit IMO.

A mate of mine is a high court judge , she is very pretty . I went to one of her court cases in Winchester to Watch the case , she walked in wearing her black cloak , wig and red high heeled shoes she looked amazing and a brilliant judge too .

I think its tradition that stops it from dying out...it does make proceedings look very formal but I agree they could still do that without the wigs imo

The finest example of the sneering, superior, self important toff. Hate his condescension. A bloke exactly manufactured for this made up programme, pretentious engorged male member..

I like tradition, keep it as it is.

I would update the CPS first and give judges more freedom on sentencing.
