[2007] EWCA Crim 621
Interruptions made by a judge during a defendant's evidence in chief had been necessary in order to provide a jury with a clear summing up as the evidence had lasted a number of days and was of a complex nature. The interruptions had not been hostile towards the defendant and therefore had not created the impression that her evidence lacked credibility.
