- Police Constable Jeffries.
- Police Constable Jeffries.

1:08:15
I swear by Almighty God
that the evidence I shall give

1:08:17
shall be the truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth.

1:08:35
Mr Myers, does that conclude your case?
1:08:38
No, my lord. I now call the final witness
for the prosecution, Christine Helm.

1:08:43
- Christine Helm!
- Christine Helm.

1:08:58
Christine.
1:09:10
I swear by Almighty God
that the evidence I shall give

1:09:13
shall be the truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth.

1:09:16
My lord, I have the most serious objection
1:09:19
to this witness being summoned,
as she is the wife of the prisoner.

1:09:23
I call my learned friend's attention
1:09:25
to the fact that I summoned
not Mrs Vole, but Mrs Helm.

1:09:30
- Your name, in fact, is Christine Helm?
- Yes. Christine Helm.

1:09:34
And you have been living
as the wife of the prisoner, Leonard Vole?

1:09:37
- Yes.
- Are you actually his wife?

1:09:40
No.
1:09:42
I went through a marriage ceremony
with him, but I already had a husband.

1:09:46
- He's still alive.
- Christine, that's not true!

1:09:49
There is proof of a marriage
between the witness and the prisoner,

1:09:52
but is there any proof
of a so-called previous marriage?

1:09:55
My lord, the so-called previous marriage
is, in fact, well-documented.
