After a short break in proceedings, PC Billington is giving evidence in court. 

He confirms he attended Ryan Giggs’s address following a report of a “domestic disturbance” and an allegation of assault.

The police bodycam footage showing Giggs giving his account of the alleged assault incident is played to the court again.

The footage shows the officer ask Giggs for Kate Greville’s date of birth.

“Hers? I don’t know,” he replies.

Giggs tells the officer that Ms Greville “wouldn’t give me my phone for about half an hour”.

Giving evidence in court, PC Billington says he told Giggs he was being arrested.

Prosecutor Peter Wright QC asks the officer if he had formed an impression of Giggs’s state at the time.

PC Billington replies: “I believed he was intoxicated.”

The officer says he came to this conclusion because Giggs was “slow” in answering questions and “his eyes appeared slightly glazed”.
