Showtrial is a British legal drama television series created by Ben Richards. The five-part first series aired on BBC One from October to November 2021 and starred Tracy Ifeachor and Céline Buckens. Two years later, it was announced that Showtrial had been developed into an anthology format and that a second series had been ordered, starring a new cast. That second series aired from October to November 2024 and starred Adeel Akhtar, Nathalie Armin and Michael Socha.

The first series received a mixed reception from critics. The writing, pace and lack of subtlety received criticism from reviewers. However, the format, dramatic scenes and Buckens' acting were praised. Buckens was also nominated for various accolades for her portrayal of Talitha Campbell, including the British Academy Television Award for Best Supporting Actress and the International Emmy Award for Best Actress.
