Boy George to stand trial over escort
Boy George is expected to stand trial in London today on charges of falsely imprisoning and assaulting an escort.

The 46-year-old singer allegedly chained Audun Carlsen to the wall of his London home in Ravey Street, Shoreditch on April 28 last year.

The case, which is listed under the real name of the 1980s icon, George O'Dowd, could last up to five days.
