Giovanni Di Stefano has led an extraordinary life. But how much of it REALLY happened?

In this first episode - journalist Calum McCrae meets Giovanni's son Michael - and together they begin a quest to find out the truth about the mysterious Di Stefano. Their journey begins with his most recent chapter - as a notorious lawyer to the likes of Saddam Hussein, Slobodan Milosevic, and Harold Shipman.

Did Giovanni REALLY represent them? And what's he hiding behind his self-proclaimed title of The Devils Advocate?
