The appeal bench of three judges ruled in his favour on Monday, reading out in their judgement that Kurz "was acquitted because the objective offence of giving false evidence was not fulfilled".

"He told me to say that," she laughed, before reading out a message on McCausland's behalf: "After 22 years in comedy, I win a Bafta for dancing. It hurts, but I'll take it."

In an impassioned speech in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly on Monday, the state's chief minister and tourism minister Omar Abdullah paid tributes to the victims by reading out names of all the 26 people.

Mostly, it was just very boring, an opinion seemingly shared by Mark Wahlberg, who sounded like he was reading out of the phone book during his prayers.

He was also familiar to Eurovision viewers, reading out the UK jury's results between 1978 and 2002.
