Russell Brand has been on trial for nearly 3 weeks on multiple charges of rape and sexual assault. Brand denies all the charges against him, and this week he gave evidence in his own defence for the first time. Andy & Neil hear an extensive update from LBC reporter Helen Hoddinott, who has been covering the case at Southwark Crown Court, on the evidence the jury has heard so far.
Helen also explains how Brand presented himself when he appeared in the dock, and the three of them discuss whether there has been more media coverage of this trial than any other in recent memory.
Warning: this episode contains graphic allegations of serious sexual assault.
