\n<\/span><\/p>\nAn Oscar-winning special effects expert is on trial for breaching health and safety regulations over the death of a stunt technician on a Surrey film set.<\/p>\n
Christopher Corbould, 53, was charged following the death of Conway Wickliffe, 41, who died on the set of The Dark Knight, in Longcross, near Chertsey, in September 2007.<\/p>\n
The trial of Mr Corbould, of Bookham, Surrey, is at Guildford Crown Court.<\/p>\n
He has been charged under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.<\/p>\n
Mr Wickliffe, a father-of-two, had been leaning out of a car while operating a camera when the vehicle failed to negotiate a bend and hit a tree during the making of the Batman film, an inquest heard.<\/p>\n
He suffered severe head injuries in the crash at the test track in Longcross.<\/p>\n
The inquest hearing in Woking, in November 2008, ruled his death was an accident. <\/p>\n
Mr Corbould won an Academy Award at this year’s Oscars for his work on the film, Inception.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
