If there\u2019s one series that\u2019s set to bring the drama in a big way, it\u2019s the anticipated two-part Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Channel 4 series<\/a> will not only chronicle the talked-about \u2018Wagatha Christie\u2019 case, it will uncover some more scandals from the pair\u2019s past, as seen in an online exclusive clip provided to RadioTimes.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the drama, the lead roles are played by\u00a0BAFTA Award-winning star Chanel Cresswell as Coleen Rooney, and\u00a0Game of Thrones<\/a>\u2018 Natalia Tena as Rebekah Vardy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Also joining the cast is Michael Sheen<\/a>, who will star as Rooney\u2019s barrister David Sherborne. A libel lawyer to the stars, Sherborne has represented clients like Johnny Depp, Hugh Grant, Elton John and Harry Styles, to name a few.<\/p>

In the exclusive RadioTimes.com<\/strong> clip, we see Sherborne (Sheen) question Vardy (Tena) over a former newspaper interview about Peter Andre.<\/p>\n

It starts with Sherborne stating:\u00a0\u201cWe\u2019re back in 2004 and you gave The News of the World this interview about having had sex with Peter Andre.\u201d<\/p>\n

He reads from the interview: \u201cPeter\u2019s shaved, slobbery, lasts five minutes and then falls asleep. Peter was tiny, she sighs, the smallest trouser equipment I\u2019ve ever seen. When he pulled down his pants, I couldn\u2019t believe it, it was like a miniature chipolata.\u201d<\/p>\n

He looks up to Vardy, who is sitting on the witness stand, \u201cYour words, Mrs Vardy?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, my lady,\u201d she says. \u201cCan I give you a bit of history on that one?\u201d But is quickly shut down by the defence lawyer, who asks her:\u00a0\u201cDo you think it was respectful of Mr Andre to have told all this to Sun readers?\u201d<\/p>\n

She answers: \u201cIt is horrible and would I ever do something like that again? Not in a million years.\u201d<\/p>\n
