This is a link post Charles Saaaatchi is a total wanker, but this is quite funny.
Sub-Cassetteboy Nigella thing, probably been seen via other sources.

How a fraud/theft case has been reduced to an embittered couple washing their dirty linen in public in such detail I do not know. Yay for British justice.

This is a normal post It's related to the defence
They say she let them spend what they wanted because she was a drug addict. So the point of her being there is to testify whether or not that was true.

Well, a simple denial should be enough. But also she's been asked really odd stuff like whether she moved in with Saatchi before they married, like 'living in sin' is a crime, and also the fact that she got together with him so soon after her former husband's death was raised. What relevance can these things have?

This is a normal post She took drugs around the time her husband died.
So they want to know when that was in relation to her and Saatchi.

It's rooting around the story to determine how solid it is. To see if they can get her to crack (arf) under pressure. If she does that, it's basic character assassination for defence.

Ok, good point well argued, but so what if you are a coke addled fuckwit, that shouldn't allow people to rip you off with impunity.

This is a normal post Correct
However if she said 'yes I am an addict' it gives weight to the defence. Jury would consider that a point in favour of the defence. And remember, this jury is made up of joe public. She says she's an addict, they will probably side with defence, thinking she's just another celeb drug diva. It's probably more important for her to be witness than Saatchi.

This is a normal post Yes, disgraceful.
But this is quite funny though.

And without Saatchi I'd never have discovered Richard Wilson's 20:50 or John Stezaker (cf. Hitler/roads, Mussolini/trains, Murdoch/Simpsons)

This is a normal post Charles Saaaatchi is a colossal wanker. My dad's friend worked for him.
Bully, vile, arsehole shit.

This may well be true but his gallery on the King's Road is very good. And free. And I'm not all that keen on much modern art.

This is a normal post Yes, Saatchi could be the poster boy for cognitive dissonance - Successful Tory Election Posters vs. Free Art.

I think that poster was actually Maurice not Charles, but I could be wrong.

Wasn't it a Saatchi & Saatchi production? The Labour Isn't Working one. Never mind, I don't like the look of him and the way he behaves and that's enough for me - y'see, Tories? It cuts both ways.

It was indeed, but Maurice is the Tory cheerleader, Charles is apparently not all that politically open, and IIRC wasn't all that keen on taking the account in the first place, as taking political sides could have hindered future business. I could, however, be making all of this up, but I think I saw a BBC documentary that said as much.
