Although the trial judge's summing-up contained emphatic advocacy and a minor misdirection of fact, read as a whole it did not deny the appellants a fair trial; the judge gave appropriate warnings (including that facts were for the jury and about accomplice evidence) and the underlying facts and evidence were sufficiently strong that the jury would have been persuaded on the evidence alone; therefore the convictions were safe and the appeal was dismissed.
