Just a proof that I will watch anything with Hugh Grant in it. :)

I have higher regard for Hugh Grant every time I see him. Immensely entertaining actor, and off the stage a modest, disarmingly honest, witty, intelligent and respectful man. And his success has not gone to his head. He has also aged well - matured from a schoolboy to a rather distinguished gentleman who firmly stands his ground in the nicest way.

I love the way Hugh handled this. He was polite but firm, eloquent and intelligent. Good on him.

The patience of Hugh Grant is beyond impressive.

hugh stood his ground. Proving is difficult however hugh made perfect sense to me. Prehaps he should have been a solicitor. Glad he became an actor. 100% RESPECT FOR THE MAN.

it takes a lot of courage to pursue this kind of public exposure to expose corruption...our lightweight Hugh is a human heavyweight . Carry on...

Thoroughly articulate, intelligent and composed.

This guy is a British treasure...Britain should be proud to have Hugh and not treat him so awful sometimes'

The best way to stop this constant and despicable behaviour is to simply refuse to buy these magazines and papers and to refuse to watch media that invades people’s privacy.

good grief - they are actors not open for such horrid shite. well done mr grant for not backing down.

I can't believe that Mungo didn't choose Mungo as his professional name. Mungo Grant. Fucking awesome.

Hugh Grant is stand up man.

If this wasn't a live inquiry, it could easily have passed as a cinema or documentary.

It is reprehensible for anyone to have their privacy violated as described by Hugh Grant. I am as disgusted by the practice as I am by the appetite for the stories.

Unfortunately we are seeing that nothing has changed in the media, HG is a very brave and articulate always liked him

It's 1 am and I'm watching this

“That’s fundamental to our British sense of decency” sounds so normal coming from Hugh grant

Admiration for Hugh

Good for Hugh. Love him more every day. He's grown into such a wonderful man.

0:34 the look on her face when he says Mungo

This makes the whole Meghan and Harry issue even more real. Harry is also suing one of those papers for phone hacking.

Good for you Mr Grant. Sadly the entire concept of privacy is under attack continuously.

wat a classy man. i want to learn how to speak like him

Thanks a huge bunch for sharing these most interesting court proceedings !

This just proves to me how busy children make your life, because I never saw any of this 4 years ago and am only catching up now because of quarantine.

This is a great inquiry video, independent of Hugh Grant. Watched the whole thing

Good for HG for facing down the tabloids with aplomb. I admire his forthrightness. I'm astonished at the corruption of the Metropolitan Police and the violence of the paparazzi. As far as I can tell, Grant's behavior never justified the excesses of the tabloids and their suppliers.

cooked for Hugh once .. at a famous Golf club..nice chap and it was an honour. press people are rightly ashamed of themselves..

HAHAHAH 0:36 the cheeky grin Mungo!

Wow. I stumbled on this through one of those weird chains of videos one sometimes ends up following on KZfaq, watched about half of it, and spent the whole time thinking, how is an actor coming off so much better in a legal situation than an actual lawyer, then I realized - it's because the actions and people the lawyer is trying to defend are indefensible.

The best part of this was that woman who was so clearly crushing on Hugh, she kept smiling, lmao

20:27 Just leaving it here because this part was lovely, haha, he is clearly slightly worked up already

the lady behind the lawyer is very distracting...her lovey dovey face is irritating

I love u mr Grant ..!!! Can watch anything that has you 😍

Note the lady in blue when a question is posed - sheer fascination with HG!

Good on you Mungo.

0:39-0:43 - Watch the woman to the left of the QC and the observe her body language after Hugh Grant takes his place in the room. ❤️😍

interesting to watch, how everybody behaved and replied. I like Hugh Grants attitude in all this. also, for me, his replies sound sooo british, that it is fun to watch, althoug the topic is very serious

That woman can’t stop ogling him!

Hugh is absolutely seething 56:30

I love Hugh Grant. I dont give that love freely believe me. He is a Titan.

Hugh is a lot smarter than I gave him credit for in the past.

She is simply utterly Charmed!

omg the brunette on the left her facial expressions she's like one of charles manson family

honest question; what are the roles of people behind the standing QC?

I wonder why a video of Steve Coogan's full testimony doesn't seem to be posted anywhere, not that I could find. I've read a transcript of Coogan's testimony, but it pretty dry, as you can probably imagine. Seeing the full video would no doubt have more impact.

What exactly is the point of the long haired lady sat to the left of the main lawyer? She just appears to listen, and look at Hugh with wanton lust.

Lady in her mind “Yoo hoo,I’m here and I want you badly Hugh Mungo watch my eyes 👀 and my lip language” I’m not hearing anything your saying by the way” Hugh In his mind-“ I wish that woman would bugger off,I’m not even going to look at her”......

0:36 - here is your real life Bridget Jones. Flustered

That woman should have been escorted out and offered a cold shower. Or perhaps she was there to distract Hugh with her eyes boring into him.

Just watch 1:15:08. Hilarious....straight out a Hugh Grant movie....the delay between his standing and realising that/why everyone else is standing.

The bird to the left of the lawyer is dying to get into Hugh's pants..

That woman is acting so inappropriately

I love you Sir Grant, you are very honest as a good English. I love you for all. Thank you and I hope to see you soon, like a miracle, like a something opened full of light for me. A tea??? At Nothing Hill??? With who you met there to have a tea time??? 😡😜😝😅😋🥰.

Top chap.

Mungo?? Hehe never seen his Wikipedia page but after I heard him say his full name and having a giggle to myself I had to look lol. He is a great actor and I was so happy when his split with Hurley was announced I have never liked her

That lady in the grey, to the left of the solicitor; what exactly is her job? To look longingly at Hugh Grant?

Why does that women keep staring at Hugh? :/

The woman on the left gawping and playing with her hair the whole time. 😂

shut it, love actually!

#FreeTommy I came on this through reading Tommy’s book where he mentions this enquiry and am very glad to know Leveson is the Judge who will hear Tommy’s appeal on the 10th!

Oh I remember this 😊

just how many lawyers were there in this case?

'Erm Hugh John Mingo Mango MUNGO Grant....'

The Leveson Inquiry cost £5.4 million (about USD 7.4 million), which, given its remit, is not a lot of money. David Cameron was the British PM at the time of the Inquiry's report, and his response to the report was that he agreed with much of its substance, but hedged on whether any recommendations would be implemented legislatively. In the Conservative Party's 2017 manifesto it states that a Conservative Party government will not enact any legislation around huge chunks of the Leveson report.

What are all he people behind the solicitor doing?

The woman on the left is trying her best to look like a wide eyed ingenue, hoping Hugh will notice her. She doesn't even try to pretend she isn't undressing him with her eyes. LOL

Doesn't this interviewer remind you all so much of the actor who worked with Hugh at the bookshop in Notting Hill? Very distracting.

What is relatioshipp between soha and you iam worried I never know

Can anyone explain this inquiry?what is going on?

I wonder if she kept her job, though she doesn't seem to have one. I can look left for a living...don't fancy the sore neck. I wonder if she was ethical in staring down a witness.

Who's the brunette in the back with the wide eyes?

A difficult but necessary thing for Hugh Grant to go through .Some serious accusations so why wasn't the woman on the left taking it seriously .What an embarrassment she is ! She must think she isn't on camera .

that woman in the grey top just wouldn't stop 'making eyes' at hugh grant

0:36 That woman had a crush on Hugh Grant, but who won't?

That woman clearly has a drool fest going on totally disrespectful to the sensitive situation at hand.

Whatever bad behavior you imagine of these so called PIs is probably way worse.

4 photographs and a story

What are all those other people in the Background doing ? Lol

Alright MUNGO?

After this make a movie so we can watch your charm

2:02 What a legend

why wasn't Grant considered for a Superman's role??? he had everything to fit in.... I wonder 🤔

"for the Love of Money is the root of All Evil"...

Can't stop laughing at the woman lawyer creaming herself at the beginning of this video 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Why isn’t that crushing woman a meme yet?

MUNGO

When the subject of media ethics arises online, specifically in the context of the behaviour, so to speak, of the British press, I'm often left gobsmacked by certain attitudes. To be fair, these attitudes are far more likely to be found under a two minute snippet of testimony from -Mungo- Hugh Grant or Steve Coogan, say, as opposed to the complete appearance. You may infer from that what you will. I don't think it's unfair or unreasonable to suggest that many of the people who defend the behaviour of a red-top when it applies to people like Grant, Coogan or other high profile people, but cry foul when the target is a murdered child, specifically Milly Dowler. The argument seems to be a parroting of that which we hear from former tabloid editors and journalists, namely, that all the targeted celebrities court publicity when it suits them. That's where the explicit end of the argument occurs, but the actual argument, as far as I can tell (and with my 'colouring'), is: _Celebrities are perfectly happy to court publicity when it suits them, so they have no right to complain when we buy information about their medical status, hide in bushes outside their houses, steal and rummage through their garbage looking for potentially damaging information, endanger their safety and the safety of their children by chasing them in cars and on motorbikes, hack their phones, conduct electronic surveillance in their residences and engage in many other unethical and often illegal practices in order to make more money_ I acknowledge that some celebrities, not content with the publicity generated by their work, engage both personally and via PR firms to increase and refine their public profile. I can't fathom it on a personal level. From my point of view, the idea of being able to do work you love in a highly paid industry is enough reward, and being able to do so while staying largely under the radar seems to me ideal. Whatever you think about such celebrities, courting publicity in that way does not mean that The Sun or The Daily Mail have carte blanche to hack your phone or steal your refuse. Oddly, some of those who think the Hugh Grants of this world are fair game are also quite vocal in their attacks, in a different context, on what they call the "MSM" or mainstream media. They take the same blanket they use to cry foul about Zionist conspiracies and use it to cover their defence of the same 'Zionist' outlets that engage in the most horrendous treatment of movie & pop stars. I've tried to understand the driving force behind such facile, empty-headed notions. In the case of someone like -Mungo- Hugh Grant, I've no doubt that some harbour envy. Or they may see him on TV and decide that he hits them the wrong way. Fair enough, I suppose, we're all prone to the, "I don't know, there's just something about him" thing. But how does that translate to "Fuck him, I don't care if they break into his flat or hack his phone"?

can someone give them a bigger room, i feel claustrophobic just from watching them. imagine if someone has too get up too piss, they have 30 people too walk over

"...there's a police investigation to be going on...and I have to be extremely careful concerning prejudices..."

So did the girl on the left cop off with him afterwards or what

That questioner should take his hand away from his mouth and stand up and speak properly.

Why are they all so unprofessional, tittering away!

yep...she wants him....

Murdock

--... your publicy put out a statement about the birth.. -- ...I was very anxious that it would give it a twisted spin...

--...you been granted relief by justice Tugendhat, has...

Mungo??

That woman on the left is SO invested. Is she related to him?

Wth that girl laughing at 0.37 .....
