He appeared in two series of Steven Moffat's sitcom Joking Apart as Robert Glazebrook, opposite Tracie Bennett as his wife, supporting Robert Bathurst and Fiona Gillies. Raffield took part in the audio commentary for the DVD release of the second series in 2008. Shortly after filming the pilot for Joking Apart, he briefly appeared in Press Gang, in the fourth-season episode "Bad News", also written by Steven Moffat and directed by Bob Spiers. He has since completed a PhD in Law. After lecturing at Birkbeck College, University of London, he is now a Professor in the School of Law at The University of Warwick, where he teaches Tort Law, Shakespeare and the Law, and Origins of English Law. In 2009, Paul became a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and was awarded a National Teaching Fellowship. He is the author of Images and Cultures of Law in Early Modern England: Justice and Political Power, 1558-1660 (Cambridge University Press, 2004). He co-edited Shakespeare and the Law (Hart Publishing, 2008), a collection of papers from the international conference on Shakespeare and the Law, hosted by The University of Warwick in 2007. He is co-founder and consultant editor of the journal, Law and Humanities. His first sole-authored monograph on Shakespeare and the Law, entitled Shakespeare's Imaginary Constitution: Late-Elizabethan Politics and the Theatre of Law, was published in 2010 by Hart Publishing; it was nominated for the 2011 Inner Temple Book Prize, awarded every 3 years for a book which has made a profound contribution to the understanding of law in the United Kingdom. Paul's latest book, The Art of Law in Shakespeare, was published by Hart Publishing (an imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing) in 2017; it was nominated for the 2018 Hart Socio-Legal Book Prize. His next book, Shakespeare's Strangers and English Law, will be published by Hart Publishing. Paul played Dickie Sainsbury in the West End revival of Michael Frayn's Donkeys' Years. He directed Tim Firth's "Neville's Island" (having played Angus in the West End production), John Godber's "On the Piste" and Terry Johnson's award-winning comedy, Hysteria, at Birmingham Repertory Theatre. He played Alan Hodges in Christmas at the Riviera, ITV1. (en)
