First Televised Court Hearing Under Way

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 31 Oktober 2013 | 18.26

Legal proceedings are under way at the Court of Appeal in the first court case in England to be televised.

Convicted counterfeiter Kevin Fisher is applying for leave to appeal against his sentence of seven years.

His legal counsel is Alexander Cameron QC, brother of Prime Minister David Cameron.

It is a moment of legal and broadcasting history, as Sky News' cameras film inside the Royal Courts of Justice for the first time.

Cameras have been banned from courts in England and Wales since 1925.

The rules in Scottish courts are different and earlier this year cameras were allowed to film a murder trial - but only with the permission of all the participants, including the defendant.

Sky News and other broadcasters have been campaigning for a decade for cameras to be allowed to show all trials.

After prolonged negotiations, the Government and the judiciary have agreed to allow cameras inside certain courtrooms.
