[2002] EWCA Crim 2474

Once an answer had been elicited from a defendant at trial that he had acted on the advice of his solicitor, the matter should not have been pursued further by the trial judge. The detail of the advice was plainly privileged and it was for defence counsel to decide whether to take the matter further.
