Rebekah Brooks' husband said he hid a bag of his pornographic DVDs because he didn't want a "Jacqui Smith moment", the phone hacking trial heard. Ms Smith became embroiled in a row after her husband submitted an expenses claim for watching porn.
The husband of former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks has told a court the couple were "appalled and disgusted" by claims that murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler's phone had been hacked.
Charlie Brooks said he and his wife met with then News International chairman James Murdoch in July 2011 to discuss a Guardian newspaper story alleging the missing teenager's voicemail messages had been deleted by the now-defunct News of the World.
He told the court: "The conversation at James Murdoch's house ranged from, 'this is too awful' to being 'this can't have happened'.
"However there was too much accuracy in what had been said for it to be just a political hit. There was too much substance."
Both Mr and Mrs Brooks deny the charges against them.
