Phone-hacking trial: Andy Coulson says affair was wrong

Andy Coulson has denied his affair with Rebekah Brooks breached professional standards.

The former News of the World editor said it was "wrong" and "shouldn't have happened" as he gave evidence in the phone-hacking trial for the first time.

But he told the Old Bailey the pair's closeness had not unduly affected their working relationship.
