The Court held the judge did not err in refusing to leave provocation to the jury because the evidence did not disclose a sudden and temporary loss of self-control; the sequence of conduct, intervals, and indicia of calculation (concealment of knife, use of mother to gain entry, leaving and returning) demonstrated lack of immediacy and rendered provocation untenable as a defence.
