What happened on Russell Brand’s first day in court as the trial process got under way?
Sky News’ Martin Brunt and Katie Spencer take us through the day- inside and outside the court. It starts with queues of journalists arriving early to get a seat on the press benches of court 3 at Southwark Crown Court.
Outside photographers gather to get images of Russell Brand as he walks in with his wife. No broadcast cameras or recording are allowed inside so Katie Spencer – arts and entertainment correspondent for Sky and crime commentator Martin Brunt – are your eyes and ears in court.
The first development: selecting the jury, the people who will decide if Russell Brand is guilty, or not guilty.
He faces three counts of rape, three of sexual assault and one of indecent assault. He denies all charges and the trial continues.
