Recently a mock trial was held in Westminster Hall, in which
the Robert fitz Walter and his army faced accusations of treason for their
rebellion against King John. David Carpenter played the part of fitz Walter, defended
by Nathalie Lieven QC, against Clive Anderson’s King John.
Before a large gathering in Westminster Hall and judges Dame
Sian Elias (Chief Justice of New Zealand), Lord Neuberger (President of the
Supreme Court) and Justice Stephen Breyer
(of the US Supreme Court), David successfully made the case for ‘not guilty’.
It is hoped that a video of the trial will be available in
due course – watch this space!
