An alleged victim of Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey told a police officer the Hollywood star’s sexual advances were “like he thought he could groom me”, a court has been told.

Jurors at Southwark Crown Court were shown footage of the interview, in which the man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, described Spacey as a “slippery, snaky, difficult person”.
