As reported, yesterday Chris Packham won his libel action against Fieldsports Channel Ltd and one of their journalists, Andrew (Ben) O’Rourke and has been awarded substantial damages (here).
The case concluded with a statement read out in court in front of Mr Justice Griffiths, as follows:
Today there has been what I will describe as ‘an interesting statement’ in the press by one of the defendants. I won’t repeat it here but suffice to say, Chris’s legal team is examining it.
Further developments in this case may arise as a consequence. I’ll report them here when I’m able.

From the newspaper reports I thought they were there reading it out!? Did they not even show up?!
Lawyers from both sides read out the statement in court (that’s standard procedure).
Two of the three Directors from Fieldsports Channel Ltd were in court. One Director and O’Rourke were not.
Oh right I don’t know much about courts. I saw someone on Twitter say xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx
I still can’t get my head around the fact that Chris has to pay his own court costs. Why should he pay anything? What sort of shit show are we running in today’s courts?
