[2007] EWCA Crim 1773

It was not incumbent on a judge to expressly direct a jury that the bad character of a witness who was a serving prisoner was irrelevant to her credibility, and he had not erred in directing that they were entitled to take her bad character into account when considering how much weight to place on her evidence.
