Newton's Law is an Australian television drama series that began airing on ABC TV on 9 February 2017.[1] The eight-part series was developed from an original concept by Deb Cox and Fiona Eagger.
The series follows Josephine Newton (Claudia Karvan), a suburban solicitor with an overdeveloped sense of responsibility who attempts to return to her briefly glorious stint at the Bar. After Josephine's modest neighborhood solicitor's practice is incinerated by arson, she is persuaded by an old university friend and not-so-secret admirer, Lewis Hughes QC (Toby Schmitz), to join the high-flying Knox Chambers. With her marriage collapsing and motherhood fast losing its charm, Josephine decides it's time to again put on her wig and barrister's robe.[2]
