Judges have turned down a bid by the owners of the News | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
of the World to get a retrial of the former MSP Tommy | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
They've also ruled that the award of two hundred thousand | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
pounds to Mr Sheridan back in 2006, will stand. | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
In August 2006 Tommy Sheridan with his wife at his side | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
merged from a court room in Edinburgh, victorious. | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
He denied lurid stories about his sex life published | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
in the News of the World and sued the newspaper group for defamation. | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
Likening it to a David and Goliath battle to protect his reputation. | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
What we have done in the last five weeks is the equivalent of regret | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
What we have done in the last five weeks is the equivalent of Gretna | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
taking on Real Madrid, in the Bernabeu, and beating them | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
on penalty, that is what we have done. | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
These were the headlines which prompted that case. | :01:06. | :01:12. | |
Allegations that Mr Sheridan had adulterous relationships | :01:13. | :01:14. | |
Four years later Mr Sheridan was back in court, this time | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
the High Court in Glasgow, where he was convicted of lying, | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
during that defamation case, and sentenced | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
The real reason why he has been imprisoned today, is because he has | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
fought injustice, inequality, with every beat of his heart. | :01:30. | :01:45. | |
Now that Mr Sheridan was a convicted perjurer News Group argued | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
the verdict should be set aside, along with the ?200,000 he had | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
Three Court of Session judges rejected that today, | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
saying for example the jury in the defamation case were entitled | :01:56. | :02:04. | |
respects but that he was not someone who drank champagne, | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
participated in orgies and indulged in kinky sex. | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
Tommy Sheridan the long time campaigner was firmly focussed | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
on family matters today, with his father recovering | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
The News of the World at the centre of case has of course been closed, | :02:17. | :02:38. | |
the newspaper group today expressed their disappointment | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
in the ruling and said they are considering their options. | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
They will have to reflect on the view of the judges that | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
a court should be slow to interfere with jurry's decision, | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
meanwhile the Sheridans await payment of the damages awarded | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
Efforts could be made this weekend to refloat the stricken oil rig, | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
which ran aground on the west coast of Lewis almost a fortnight ago. | :02:59. | :03:02. | |

and carry out necessary repairs, in order to pull the rig | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
Six teenagers have been arrested in connection with an alleged | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
