Re:	Celebrity News, or Hello! restitution

I read that Lord Archer is facing a claim for (a) return of the damages he extracted from the Star; (b) the Star's costs in unsuccessfully defending the action. I would have thought the Star were on to a very good runner as regards the (a)- a judgment can be undone for fraud, and once the Star has got rid of the judgment in favour of Lord Archer, this seems a fairly case of failure of assumptions.

But any ideas about the basis on which the Star can recover its costs from Lord Archer?
