Thanks to the ubiquitous lady of the City legal profession, Catrin Griffiths, editor of The Lawyer magazine, for the latest instalment in the Slaughters saga.

Followers of the blue-blood firm have been entertained this year by earlier revelations of a late-1970s politically-incorrect cabaret show, as well as the now equally legendary early-1980s pre-Christmas party video.
