ITV Orders A Further 100 Episodes Of Judge Rinder

ITV has announced it has ordered a further 100 episodes of Judge Rinder.

ITV Daytime has commissioned two series of the hit courtroom show Judge Rinder, with seasoned British barrister, Robert Rinder.

The two 50 x '60 episode series will air in 2015 following a successful first series which regularly saw the daily 2pm programme reach over one million viewers.

The series - commissioned by ITV's Director of Daytime - Helen Warner, is set in a studio courtroom with Rinder hearing real small-claim cases, assisted by an usher who directs the participants through the court process.

Each show features up to three different disputes with both sides presenting their version of the facts. After interviewing claimants and defendants, Rinder rules on each case with participants agreeing that the judge's decision is final.

Helen Warner said: "I'm delighted to be bringing Judge Rinder back to ITV Daytime for a further two series. Rob has a unique appeal to viewers of all ages and the show is brilliantly produced by Tom McLennan and his team."
