Anthony Hudson KC, for NGN, accused the claimants of trying to call irrelevant witnesses over “generic issues” relating to their allegations. Hudson told the judge: “We say what this is clearly about is almost by definition a public inquiry. That is what the duke is seeking. That’s what he’s trying to achieve through this litigation.The duke’s case and the witnesses called should focus on the 30 articles and 20 episodes at issue in the trial, and not include previously settled cases which the duke now sought to “re-litigate”, Hudson said.
