I would have never known this was Warlow without the description, a true character actor, he's unrecognizable here. Even his voice is a new person entirely, just like he did in the Jekyll and Hyde recordings. What a wonderful artist!

I’ve always seen him as the Daniel Day Lewis of the musical theater world. And come to think of it, he’d be a GREAT Daniel Plainview or Bill the Butchet in a musical version of (don’t laugh at me for this) There Will Be Blood/Gangs of New York.

It is interesting that he elected to make the Judge Scottish, yes he mentions journeys, and 'addressing a British jury' though not necessarily an indicator that he is not himself British. Nevertheless, I would also do so to better contrast the Rich Attorney's voice impression. Most portray the Judge as British with an RP accent, and the Rich Attorney with a humble, regional accent. RP wasn't widespread until 1840 so older folk spoke regionally like the common folk albeit with clearer intonation

A Scottish judge would have a British jury. Scotland is part if Britain despite having a different legal system from England. Before becoming a judge, he would likely have been an advocate, the Scottish equivalent of the English barrister. Both might become a QC.

"Gurneys" was the original WS Gilbert lyric. "Rich as the Gurneys" was a reference understood in 1870s London but not today. The only Packer tycoon I know is Australian. This was changed for local flavor, but that's well in keeping with G&S tradition.

"Gurneys" also rhymes with "attorney's", which keeps the song's rhyme scheme. Not a big deal in the scheme of things, especially with Warlow's inspired performance and one of the best choruses I've ever heard singing this piece..

Actually, there's some question over that particular observation. Back in Georgian times, when the Old Bailey was somewhat of a three-ring circus, and far less the ordered affair is it today, there is some evidence that the judges used gavels purely to be heard above the sound of the mob. However, during the period this is set, it is unlikely any judge used a gavel. So, you are correct in spirit, but should be more careful with your words when making general statements :)
