Celebrity peer Lord Brockett denies rape and sex assault offences against woman

CELEBRITY peer Lord Brocket has denied five sexual offences agansit the same woman.

Lord Charles Brocket, 74, a former contestant on I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!, appeared at Isleworh Crown Court today<April 1 2026> after being charged with two counts of rape last and three sexual offence charges agaisnt the woman last August.

Lord Brocket, who is being prosecuted under his full name of Charles Nall-Cain Brocket, is charged with two counts of rape, two counts of sexual assault and one of sexual activity without consent against the same woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, at an address in London between August 9 and 11 last year.

He denied all the charges.

His plea came after an application by the defence to dismiss all the charges was unsuccesful.

Lord Brockett's barrister Crispin Aylett KC argued that a secret voice recording made by the complainant of all the alleged offences was an attempt to "trap" his client, and that it demonstrated there was consent.

However, Judge Martin Edmunds KC, the Recorder for Kensington and Chelsea, dismissed the application, saying these were matters for the jury, so the trial could proceed.

The court heard that the complainant's evidence in chief will be by a recorded video interview made on August 28, after the alleged offences were reported to police at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.

A seven day trial is still set for November 1 2027.

Brocket finished fourth in the 2004 series of I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! when Kerry Katona, the former pop singer, was declared the winner.

He went on to publish the autobiography Call Me Charlie in September that year.

The following year he hosted the ITV game show Scream! If You Want to Get Off, and went on to present Privates Exposed, a behind-the-scenes programme for Bad Lads' Army, on ITV2.

He is the 3rd Baron Brocket and son of the late Ronald Nall-Cain and Elizabeth Trotter.

He became a baron aged just 15, inheriting the rundown Brocket Hall, upon the death of his grandfather Arthur Nall-Cain, as his father had died when he was just nine.
