In the mid 80's I would have prosecuted this in the Mags for £30-40 on a guilty plea. OK plus a tenner if I was asked to advise on and draft the charges.

After all the file would be the Crown Court case summary and details of defences run, certificate of conviction and the CoA Crim Div judgment (actually that was probably all you'd need). There was not a lot he could say that hadn't already been said - and that would have been mitigation and not in my remit.
