  3. 7:26The compilation revisits Brand's interaction with Liz Hayes during a golf-cart interview for 60 Minutes Australia.

What changes when an old celebrity interview is watched after a conviction? WatchMojoUK makes that question the basis of "10 Disturbing Russell Brand Moments with What We Know Now", revisiting his public appearances in light of his sexual-offence convictions.

The clips channel's compilation reached roughly 123,000 views in nineteen hours, running at around twelve times its usual first-day pace for regular videos. It follows the channel's earlier upload, "The Russell Brand Verdict Explained", but turns from the court case to the television and radio archive.

Narrated by Ashley, the video includes Brand's appearance on MSNBC's Morning Joe. He describes himself as a "fully qualified professional gentleman" during an exchange that includes personal remarks towards Mika Brzezinski. Later, the compilation returns to his golf-cart interview with Australian journalist Liz Hayes for 60 Minutes.

These are excerpts from other broadcasters' programmes, assembled with WatchMojoUK's commentary, rather than new interviews. The selection ranges beyond those encounters to Brand's political broadcasting and panel-show appearances, before reaching the Andrew Sachs prank-call controversy and a recorded conversation with Jimmy Savile.

The distinction from the channel's verdict explainer is clear: this upload is a retrospective on what Brand said and did in public, with the original interviews and broadcasts placed back under scrutiny.
