News of the World phone hacker claims Jude Law left Daniel Craig voice messages over Sienna Miller affair Reporter Dan Evans told the court he also heard Miller saying 'I love you' He then 'pitched' the story to editor Andy Coulson who got 'very animated' Impressed bosses told him 'good work' and 'you're a company man now' Claims to have started hacking phones after being 'bullied' to get front pages Other celebrities he targeted included Cilla Black and Jade Goody Jude Law left Daniel Craig a sarcastic voice message after finding out that he was having an affair with his girlfriend Sienna Miller, the phone hacking trail has heard. Former News of the World journalist Dan Evans claims he heard a voicemail left on the James Bond star's phone by the British actor which said: "Thanks mate. I hope Saski (Craig's girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell) doesn't find out. The ex-tabloid reporter told the Old Bailey that in another message, he 'heard a female voice', which he believes was Miller's, saying: "Hi, it's me. Cannot speak, I'm at the Groucho with Jude. I love you. Relationship: Former News of the World journalist Dan Evans (left) told the court Jude Law (right) sent a message to Daniel Craig saying 'Thanks mate' after learning he was 'having an affair' with Sienna Miller Evans then claims he matched the number that had been dialled with that of the actress using a target list of celebrities to hack, which he carried around with him in his pocket. Other names on his hitlist included Cilla Black, Jade Goody, Rolf Harris, and Steven Gerrard's agent, the court heard. After he had hacked into the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo actor's phone, he went into work 'wagging my tail' and told a journalist: 'Did you know Sienna Miller is having an affair with Daniel Craig?' When he pitched the story of the affair between the Layer Cake co-stars during the weekly news conference he claims the then News of the World editor Andy Coulson "got very animated" after asking him to play the tape. Evans said impressed bosses then told him he had done 'good work' and said he was 'a company man now'. 'Affair': Miller, pictured with Craig in the 2004 film Layer Cake, is also said to have sent the British actor a voice message saying 'I love you' while she was at a restaurant with Law, her boyfriend at the time Meeting: Evans told the court that editor Andy Coulson (pictured) was visibly animated when he pitched the story of the affair to him Evans was then told by Coulson to make a copy of his recorded voicemail message, put it in a Jiffy bag and take it to reception so it would look like it had been dropped off anonymously. Then another reporter picked it up with "mock surprise" saying "look what I've found," Evans said. Evans then knocked on Craig's door and confronted him with the story, to which the actor said: "no, no, no it's not true," the court heard. The story was run past Law's public relations executive who 'approved' it and it ran in the Sunday paper the following week in October 2005, Evans told the court. Evans said: 'Jude was obviously bouncing, very angry. His PR then formed a bit of a character assassination on Sienna Miller from memory. Effectively Jude Law proved the story. He was obviously very unhappy at that time and I'm sorry that it has to be gone over now.' Other reporters working on the story discovered Law had thrown Miller out. Emails sent to editors said "Jude's packed her bags and kicked Sienna out." A quote allegedly from the Alfie actor, 41, about Sienna said: 'She had me jumping through hoops (after his affair with the nanny)...but really she's just a female Casanova.' The couple split shortly after the affair was revealed in October 2005 but rekindled their romance in 2009 before parting again in 2011. Miller, currently in America filming, is expected to give evidence at the hacking trial via video link from New Orleans on Friday. Denial: Law, pictured with Miller at the world premier of Alfie in 2004, said he did not leave messages on Craig's phone Evans's byline was the last of three on the Sienna story, prompting a News of the World executive to send a message highlighting his worth to the newspaper. Giving evidence yesterday, Law confirmed he had not left any voicemail messages for Craig, and was asked if he was aware at the time that people around him were talking to the News of the World. He said: 'No, I didn't know that anyone around me was talking to the newspapers, although I suspected it because there was such a consistent flow of information about my life and the people round me.' 'If you do not come up with a front page story you might as well jump off a cliff': reporter claims he turned to hacking because he was 'bullied' The former reporter described how he turned to hacking phones after being bullied by other staff to come up with front page stories. He told the court: 'I remember being monstered by a News of the World journalist. Accused: Evans named the former News of the World editor as one of the people who had 'direct knowldge' that hacking was going on at the paper He sent me an email saying "If you do not come up with a front page story you might as well jump off a cliff." 'It said as far as I'm concerned your Unique Selling Point (USP) is the phones, intercepting voicemails, so I suggest you fucking well go and do some more. It was very scary and I was in fear of my job to put it mildly. I remember feeling terrorised. Evans, who has already admitting hacking phones, said he went away and "hacked every phone he could." He joined the News of the World in 2005 after he was poached from the Sunday Mirror largely for his hacking skills to 'bring big exclusives cheaply', the court heard. The court heard a month after he started at the paper he was given a £300 cash advance to buy phones, SIM cards and credit so he could hack phones without it being traced back to him. The claim was said to have been signed by two senior staff members and paid out in cash. He said hacking was a daily occurrence at the paper until private investigator Glenn Mulcaire and royal editor Clive Goodman "got busted" in 2006. He said: 'Then it stopped pretty much...the simple reason was the police had raided the office and removed Clive's stuff. It became abundantly clear there was a second phone hacking operation. Everybody was on tenterhooks. There was a lot of fear and anxiety going around. I think a lot of people were covering their tracks. There was a palatable sense of shock. I proceeded to get rid of all of I could lay my hands on. 'This included destroying tape recordings, micro cassettes which I sucked the ribbon out of, notebooks, and I stuck it all in big blue recycling bins in the office,' said Evans. He told the court this was all happening while bosses were sitting less than three metres away. Evans said he also stuck some stuff in bin bags and took it home with him. Andrew Edis QC, prosecuting, asked him what he did with his list of hacking targets: 'I had it in my pocket. It was an A4 document created on a computer but never saved. 'I put it in an envelope and wrapped it in black gaffer tape and stuck it in a mate's loft.' Mr Edis also asked Evans who had direct knowledge hacking was going at the paper. The witness gave 10 names of staff, including Coulson. 'I did it out of curiosity, but its curiosity which killed this particular cat': Evans used 'list of targets' two years later during story about Kelly Hoppen and Guy Ritchie Two years later in 2009 Evans retrieved the list as his friend was moving house and in a "moment of madness" used it again. He said: 'I used it to see if there was any truth in a story I had seen in the paper connected with the interior designer Kelly Hoppen and Guy Ritchie, the husband of Madonna. I did it out of curiosity but it's curiosity that killed this particular cat.' The court heard Evans was rumbled when a PIN number popped up on Ms Hoppen's phone alerting her someone had tried to access her voicemail. Ms Hoppen, who has furnished houses for several stars including Victoria Beckham, obtained a court order to see who it was and Evans was arrested. Retrieved list: Evans said he used his list of hacking targets again to see if there was any truth in a story involving Guy Ritchie and designer Kelly Hoppen Evans said he was left in "stone cold shock" when hauled into the managing editor's office in 2010 to be told Ms Hoppen had complained. "I said I didn't remember making the telephone calls," he said. Prosecutor Andrew Edis asked: "Is that true?" "No," replied Mr Evans. After Evans was caught hacking the phone of the designer, he was suspended and put on paid gardening leave, he said. Evans also claimed he had learned Bond Girl, Eva Green, was due to star in Casino Royale after hacking a message on Craig's phone left by executive producer Barbara Broccoli. He said another reporter told him that the source of the story had been revealed during one of the meetings. "Andy was grilling him about the reliability of this," he said. 'He said it's from the phones in the executive conference, in front of the entire executive contingent of the paper. Evans said he confronted the person responsible for the incident, saying: "I held him up about it. 'He said "take your point, take your point, I won't do it again."" Throughout his hacking career Evans, who also hacked phones for the Sunday Mirror, said he accessed voicemails of celebrity agents Struan Marshall and Ian Monk, who represents Wayne Rooney. He also tried unsuccessfully to hack the phone of Rolf Harris. Asked what the ultimate fate of his hacking hitlist was, Evans replied: 'I ripped it up.' He also admitted hacking the voicemail of Shane Richie to find out whether his wife was expectinga baby, as well as the phone of Jenson Button. Evans was shown emails from October 2005 about efforts to 'get to work on Rolf Harris'. One email read: 'Sometimes I think we are dazzled by shady stuff' rather than obvious journalist checks. Evans said he had made various checks because the rumour was of 'marital strife'. Confrontation: Evans, pictured arriving at court today, is then said to have knocked on Craig's front door to ask him about the story All hacking activity is said to have stopped after the arrests of Mulcaire and Goodman, but Evans said he did on a few occasions hack into the phones of PR executive Ian Monk and footballer Steven Gerrard's agent Struan Marshall. He told the court that shortly after joining the News of the World, Mr Evans claimed expenses for phone kit to hack into voicemails. Coulson denies conspiring to hack phones and conspiring to commit misconduct in a public office. All seven defendants, including former Sun and News of the World editor Rebekah Brooks, deny all the charges against them. For periods of my life, it was reasonably extensive - cannabis, ecstasy, cocaine': Court hears about reporter's 'drug-taking past The court heard how Evans is a recovering drug and alcohol abuser who has two previous convictions for possessing cocaine and amphetamines. The former reporter confessed to being twice "busted" with drugs to the jury, and admitted he first smoked cannabis when he was just 14-years-old. "I got busted with some drugs when I was a student," he said. Past: The former Sunday Mirror correspondent told the court he smoked his first 'spliff' when he was 14 years old (It was) some amphetamines and then I was also busted with some cocaine about seven years ago, maybe more. Asked to explain his history of drug use, he said: "For periods of my life, it was reasonably extensive - cannabis, ecstasy, cocaine. Recreational drugs have played a part in my life, since my mid to late teens. Happily no longer in any way. I smoked my first spliff when I was 14-years-old. I have not had drugs in my system for a period of time - I consider myself to be recovering. That goes for alcohol as well at the present moment. Evans was also asked to explain his conviction for perjury when giving evidence to the High Court. "I didn't tell the truth," he said. I said that I had no recollection of making the phone calls, and allowed the inference to be drawn that there may have been an innocent explanation for the generating of messages that threw the whole thing up in the first place. I point blank denied hacking the voicemails. Evans said he was suspended on full pay by the newspaper, but was not sacked and was eventually made redundant when the newspaper closed. "I was placed on formal gardening leave, told not to come to the office, colleagues were told not to speak to me, and I was cut off - sent to Coventry," he said. I didn't have a formal HR process, it felt very informal. Evans said he was made redundant when the paper closed down in July 2011. Asked if he got a payout, he said:'I got the same settlement as everyone else.' As well as admitting phone hacking Evans has also pleaded guilty to misconduct in the public office and perverting the course of justice. His former News of the World bosses Andy Coulson, 46, and Rebekah Brooks, 45, are now on trial accused of conspiring with others to hack phones and misconduct in a public office.
