Michael Caine

And just some of those messages, she asks how you are, sending kisses.

When was the last message you sent to her?

In 2017, she was being interviewed by the media.

This same stuff came up about her reputation.

Sorry, I don't really, I think it's funny that he called me a c**t. So the narrative seems that you tarnished her reputation somehow.

So there's an email you've got your hands on that talks about her behaviour, and this was from management at the Rocky Horror Show.

So there was another charge laid against you in relation to C1, a chin grab and face throw, a single charge of common assault.

This one seems ridiculous.

And your accusers even used this accidental collision with another actor to say that you were a bully and you're meant to run into her.

And that night you did speak to the resident director.

And what was that?

C1 claimed she told the resident director that you grabbed her face and that she was afraid.

Was there anything in that chat with the resident director regarding that?

Nothing.

No mention of throwing anyone's face.

But C1 told media she did actually complain to the director.

And C1 said the next day she had a visit from John Frost, the producer, and told him you were a bully, et cetera?

But the newspapers ran with that and C1 had made complaints that they fell on deaf ears, but she hadn't.

No.

There were other eyewitnesses in court who the police had relied upon to lay charges.
