Vegetarian Star

When Will Smith’s Seven Pounds came out, there was a lot of talk about the vegan themes present throughout the movie, leading you to believe someone involved with the production was a vegetarian or vegan.

There’s no guessing vegetarians were at the center of one British drama that aired for almost a decade. Judge John Deed was the longest running BBC legal drama, debuting in 2001 and concluding in 2007, when actor Martin Shaw became involved with another television program.

“Judge John Deed” is a vegetarian, played by a vegetarian-Martin Shaw. The show was written by G.F. Newman, a vegan writer and producer who also had a hand in the Law and Order Dramas.

Newman, like Shaw, has been outspoken about his beliefs and insists that no meat is eaten on the sets when he is producing or directing shows.

“It came down to one question, can you be healthy without killing animals? If the answer is ‘yes’ then the only reason you’re killing is because you like the taste. But you can’t take a life just because you like its taste.”
