Russell Brand will be on trial from Monday: he’s been charged with three counts of rape, three counts of sexual assault and one count of indecent assault. He strenuously denies all charges. But how does the UK justice system ensure a fair trial when the defendant is one of the UK’s most recognisable public figures? What does the prosecution have to prove in a case of this nature? And what protections are available to witnesses? In this episode, Minnie Stephenson speaks to Sir Max Hill KC, former Director of Public Prosecutions and one of Britain’s most experienced criminal barristers, about how a trial like this unfolds. This is the first episode of our daily podcast bringing you the evidence and legal context from the courtroom as the trial unfolds. ------- Get more news at our site - https://www.channel4.com/news/ Subscribe to our Substack newsletter: https://channel4news.substack.com/subscribe Follow us: TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@c4news Instagram - https://www.insta
