It's a right guaranteed not once, but twice in our constitution – a trial by jury. And many of us are asked to serve on them, whether we want to or not.

We speak with legal experts about the role juries play in our justice system – and the psychology of jury selection.
We also hear from someone who's served on a jury for another high-profile case.
