No I'm sure it's two women.

IMO

No, it's definitely a man and a woman sitting together.

Smith has just hung him up by his musical testicle!

In not seeing her for over 30 yrs he says he had nothing to say to her !

 

[mishy66]

I have just gone back and listened - he definitely to my ears says “I never saw her again til, you know, she came and pick up her belongings”.
Arghhhhh!! Hope someone else in the court room has picked up on this.

Hopefully after lunch break they will hit that one up!

OMG his stalling tactics are painful in the extreme!

I suspect the reason he insisted he paid for the meal and drink, even thought 'he can't remember the details' is to distance himself from the notion he uses his victims for money.

You're talking about the guy wearing glasses and a pale yellow mask, who is balding on top? It's a bloke.

No, it's definitely a man and a woman sitting together.

I think it may be a super sleuth couple. The woman matches a photo of a very active Facebook member on TLV FB page.

He waited until RB was practically comatose with exhaustion from concocting a lie,

@TootsieFootsie and @KateM
Lol, might you be talking about different people?
Because there are two women, but also a man and woman.
Or maybe it's just Schrodinger's courtroom.

 

[gymtonic]

He just said that he wasn't there for his health, it was because it was a place that everyone was going to.

...especially rich people!

 

[wallyworld]

OMG his stalling tactics are painful in the extreme!

sums it up beautifully

S

I meant if you were to make up a name quickly when backed into a corner, the name Maggio is not a name that would come into your head UNLESS you had a connection to it.

Absolutely!

Lol. Admittedly is is getting difficult to determine such things these days, but yes, I thing we are looking at 2 different couples.

 

[TootsieFootsie]

LOl No.

I don't see a man at all amongst them.
Not only looks. but mannerisms as well.

Anyway it doesn't matter, I was just hoping that one would be a relative of Marion's.

love it

Smith is good at using the element of surprise in his questioning, for sure.

 

[Deleted member 249471]

I did see the man behind Casselden falling asleep AND the pregnant instructing solicitor next to Casselden close her eyes.

 

[KateM]

LOl No.

I don't see a man at all amonst them.
Not only looks. but mannerisms as well.

Well one of us needs to go to SpecSavers and I don't think it's me. lol

Yes, that's the man I'm referring to.

Smith doesn't need to slow down his speech.

Every word he's spoken has been clear and easy to understand.

I thought it was a bit of a "tell" that he seemed not to understand the idiom "dream" so her honour said " I think he is taking it literally" and BS changed from idiom...but then immediately afterwards AKA used the idiom himself " I never dreamed that....". So ...selective understanding?
