Why has Prince Harry been in court?

Culture and media editor, BBC News

If you want a sense of his priorities, this is it: a prince, estranged from his family and now living more than 5,000 miles from London, who flies in from LA to walk through those historic doors of the Royal Courts of Justice and into Court 76. The allegations include the use of bugging devices put inside people's cars and homes, surreptitious listening in to private phone calls as they were happening, impersonating people to get private information and other "gross breaches of privacy" according to the claimants' lawyers.

It was not only Prince Harry who turned up today. With a notepad and bottle of water on the table in front of him, he sat two seats from his fellow claimant Frost Law. Sir Elton and Baroness Lawrence also attended in the afternoon. The BBC also has correspondent Tom Symonds actually in court, splitting his time between the courtroom and the Strand outside, to broadcast from the live cameras there.
