Broxton v McClelland (No.2)
Held
All bases for the appeal were rejected. The court reaffirmed the very high threshold required to overturn a libel jury verdict: ". . . in an action for libel a Court of Appeal should pay no regard to any supposed misdirection by the Judge, on law or fact, unless it was plainly such as to lead to a substantial miscarriage of justice."
