[2010] EWCA Crim 3202

A judge who had been sarcastic and showed irritation towards a defendant's counsel had not been guilty of bias or hostility. From time to time both judges and counsel could become irritated with each other and that was only human, but it was important to remember that the defendant might not understand such displays of irritation.
