Gisèle Pelicot’s courage, resilience and fortitude in publically proving a decade of rape and sexual abuse at the hands of her husband and fifty other men has transformed her from septuagenarian grandmother to French national hero.

Dominique Pelicot will go down as one of the worst sex offenders in modern French history, having been sentenced to 20 years in prison for drugging Gisèle and inviting dozens of men to rape her in her home in the south of France.

Kamal and Camilla speak to The Telegraph's Paris correspondent Henry Samuel from the courthouse in Avignon, Provence, where he has been following the trial and its conclusion.

Elsewhere, they speak to The Telegraph's Lucy Foster, who is spearheading our Christmas Charity Appeal, about the final of the four nominated charities this year - the Teenage Cancer Trust.

You can read more about the work done by the Teenage Cancer Trust on The Telegraph website using the link below. Other charities we are supporting include: Humanity and Inclusion, Alzheimer's Research UK and Army Benevolent Fund. To donate to any of them, please visit telegraph.co.uk/2024appeal or call 0151 317 5247.
