Replaying the video-recorded interview in the summing-up was a permissible exercise because the video is the evidence and was replayed so the jury could reassess it with full knowledge of defence allegations; the judge gave full and proper directions on confessional material and on how to treat absence of records; the complaints about specific comments and alleged omissions were either unarguable or did not demonstrate prejudice or lack of balance such as to found a reasonably arguable appeal or a lurking doubt about the safety of the conviction; accordingly leave to appeal was refused.
