"A group of baboons? A school of baboons? I don’t know. A babble of baboons would just sit watching the trial.”

Dec said: “They came along in the middle of the trial, they just came along and just sat there. That was the audience, yeah! Hopefully there will be a few more watching when it goes on telly…”
