It was a take that said the present you would never forget, especially if he added that the news of the world had no evidence, and he planned to deny the stories and sue.
Tommy Sheridan pushed the self-destruct button on the heated session on 9 November 2004.
His conviction yesterday was end winding legal road his political career has resulted in a crackdown on his family home, risked his marriage and brought the party he his knees led to.
His remarkable victory in the resulting libel suit in 2006 was only a temporary respite. In this case, he asked the jury to believe that perjury had 18 witnesses to him down.
In the criminal trial, he claimed many more were conspiracy part of Machiavelli, and in both cases the politician-turned set to law student turn on the jury against the Sunday newspaper.
His exceptional thesis was that he almost single-handedly defeated the poll tax and Margaret Thatcher and silence brought wanted him big business. Rupert Murdoch's News International, to him to destroy, and hatched the capitalist machine to do a series of lies about his personal life.
But it was Sheridan are "happily married, essential Socialist who had concocted the lies."
He seemed to think perjury not such a serious crime using a tabloid defeat was, and in an attempt to his accuser wrong he is on a track action out that richly illustrated resolve his stubborn to prove and monstrous ego-how it was in the civil case - but defied common sense described.
In the last 12 weeks in Glasgow, the Court that heard the real Sheridan was an adulterer and swinger had a threesome with a party workers and his brother-in-law, out of love to the same woman under his wedding photo in his marital bed and enjoyed group sex in a seedy Club and one flat, in Manchester.
In both studies, Sheridan chose to its QC to plunder and to defend themselves. He the Scotland has three most respected lawyer - Richard keen QC, Dean of the Faculty of advocates, Maggie Scott, QC, known as the "Queen of the appeal court", has now released and Donald Findlay, QC, defended some of the most notorious killers of the country.
The law student in an impressive performance in the theatre of the highest Criminal Court, but he fought against the odds. The jury had to believe only accept two of the 180 witnesses, he committed adultery and perjury.
The first witness in the trial, Barbara Scott, 40, the minute was Secretary, recorded that his confession to the SSP session.
She was a bullish performer, bristling with barely veiled indignation. You recorded that the man go before so much admired on two occasions had included in a swinger club.
And then there was the flame-haired Dane, Katrine trolls, 36, saw the activist, Sheridan, speaking at a meeting in Aberdeen in 1996, and four years later a four-year affair began after leaflets with him in a Glasgow by-election.
It had nothing to gain parading through a series of dirty revelations in two Scottish courts.
And with your confessions the perjury trial was a "lite" version of his alleged pass. The libel case heard he was a cocaine snorting, champagne swilling, four time a night man, part three, four and five a bed romps took.
Not surprisingly, crackles Court No. 4 with tension and hardly hidden horror as his accuser interrogated taken.
The feud that divided the SSP in 2006, prior to the civil case led to former friends and colleagues give evidence against him and loyal fans who appear for him.
Crown witnesses were reduced to one-liners answers in response to his aggressive questioning.
Sheridan's distaste for his accuser was no longer obvious when he removed his sins Bob bird, the Scottish editor of the newspaper that confronted to prove he was a wire wear embarrassing revelation he confronted for his Boxer shorts, confess before just a secret videotape that showed the former MSP.
Before the trial, Sheridan offered a deal in exchange for a confession was, would in a 18-month sentence and his wife have led walk free. However, he decided to rule instead fight.
