Lucy Powell described the cross-examination of Russell Brand's victims as shocking and depressing.

Brand was sentenced to 10 and a half years in prison for rape and sexual assault.

The trial judge condemned defence tactics that scrutinized victims' behaviour and clothing.

Powell expressed deep regret over setting up Ed Miliband's 2015 interview with Brand.
