Nigel Evans tells court he felt like a 'chastened child'

Nigel Evans has told a court he felt like a 'chastened child' when a pass he made on a man who was staying at his Lancashire home was not reciprocated.

Mr Evans described the relationship he had with the man as friendly and flirtatious. He said he was shocked when he found out the man had made a formal complaint again him.

"I got the impression he was interested in me," Evans told the court. "There's no fool like an old fool."

Nigel Evans denies two counts of indecent assault, one count of attempted sexual assault, five counts of sexual assault and one count of rape.
