A court talk show “TWELVE” with Andrey
Urgant.
The host and his guests raise lots of important questions, disturbing active
and partial part of the population. Even after the court announces the sentence
and closes the case, there are still those, who disagree, who believe in
justice and want to go further. The producers of “TWELVE” give people a chance
to prove that they are right.
Andrey Urgant and twelve members of the jury hear real-life cases. He plaintiff and the defendant form the
general board themselves, the decision of the later doesn’t have direct legal
force, but it can spark broad public outcry. The jury includes well-known and
respected people always ready to share their expert opinion.
Andrey Urgant, the host of “TWELVE”: “It happens, that people start smiling at
the most tragic moment. The most miserable situation always has the reverse
side. A person can’t be wildly stressed all the time. We discuss the justice of
the decision, taken by the court, in our show. We have right neither to
convict, nor to acquit: beside the emotional reaction of the jury there is the
legislation…We consider absolutely different situations: gripping, sharp,
piquant… As the shooting of the pilot episode has shown, people get involved
very quickly in the discussion, they start arguing with one another, with me,
react emotionally…”
