Oops! Thanks PV. I checked the regular forums before posting. I don't read JB as there is so much stuff in there, it would take too many hours out of the week. It will be interesting to see if VS now harden their attitude, after the times when they have caved in to celebs.

I only spotted it because I posted it on R&N as well! I hope I didn't soak up too much CPU time searching across all forums (fora?). We'll probably get a much more sophisticated discussion going here :p

The Times today reports "He could face up to two years in prison or a £5,000 fine if convicted of being drunk on an aircraft." Here's hoping for a custodial sentence, anything else will be just like water off a duck's back (in one ear and out the other) ...

Why has it taken so long?
Normally in Court within days......why the long hesitation, is there more behind the scenes with RB trying to intervene
