Samantha Bond or Abigail McKern? With all due respect to McKern being Leo's daughter, I wish Samantha Bond had stayed with the show - she had spunk and livened things up -McKern just comes across as sort of a harpy.

I agree.
I just watched the episode "Rumpole and the Blind Tasting" for the nth time and there is a scene where she and Rumpole are talking with the self-taught wine taster caught my eye. There are a couple of shots with Ms. Bond is sitting in front of a pinup calendar. The young lady in the photo looks like she might be Ms. Bond. Anybody know if she might have also posed for that calendar photo?
