Higgins vs Lihrmann, page-1133

This afternoon we had Mum, Dad, and his girlfriend in the witness box. Mum was emotional and combative and Dad was emotional and annoyed, exclaiming at one stage, 'I'm a surfer. I get up 5 in the morning. How would I know what time of day it was'. Understandable reactions in the circumstances.

Tomorrow we have Wilko and her producer take the stand to have their lengthy affidavits examined. Should be fun.

Also a submission for the English lip reader to appear by audio link was rejected by the justice. Upon learning that he will be examined via an interpreter, the justice exclaimed, "How the dickens does he lip read off a video yet needs an interpreter!?". The dude is on the next plane lol.
