The convictions were upheld because the jury could reasonably and coherently accept the applicant's admissions as relating to counts 4 and 6 while rejecting them as to counts 1 and 2 given material differences and vagueness; the trial judge properly exercised discretion to permit cross-examination on prior convictions under s.54(1)(f)(ii); the flawed sentence on lies in the summing-up was, in context, not prejudicial and any defect was harmless, so the convictions were not unsafe.
