Resurfaced video shows moment Russell Brand and his father recall nights 'with prostitutes in Hong Kong'

Convicted rapist Russell Brand laughed with his father about a holiday to Hong Kong where Ron Brand hired a prostitute for his son to have sex with, resurfaced video shows. 

Footage of the disgraced comedian and his father, now 51 and 82, shows them joking about nights Brand spent with sex workers as a teenager.

Describing the first encounter on previous occasions, Brand said how his father hired three prostitutes on the night, two for himself and one for the teenager, then 17. Brand said that they had sex with these women in the same room.

In the wake of Brand's convictions and sentencing for rape and sexual assault, video footage of the pair discussing the night has resurfaced.

It comes after the sex predator was sentenced to ten years and six months in prison today: nine years for one count of rape, plus an additional 18 months to account for the three women he sexually assaulted.

Speaking with his father on video, Brand said: 'Remember that first night? The Mandarin Palace Hotel in Hong Kong? All them women sort of wearing swimsuits.'

He went on: 'I remember thinking, f***ing hell, all of them women in swimsuits, I can't wait to get back to our school and tell my mates.'

His father laughed, and said: 'I wish I had my flippers.'

Brand continued, to more raucous laughter from Brand Sr: 'Then one of them came over, and started talking to me, and I thought wow, I can't wait to tell my mates.'

He then went on to describe how the woman began kissing him and touching his penis. 

'I actually ended up telling my mates, it was about three prostitutes in the back of a taxi, with the clicker clack of my high heels on a marble hotel lobby floor going up to that beautiful room,' he added.

Speaking to his father, he went on: 'And then you had that other one, and then I had that lovely young Filipino one didn't I.'

Brand's father said: 'You fell in love every time.'

The sex offender said he woke up the next morning to half-empty glasses of champagne, and his father reading the paper.

'And you going, "Did you wear a condom with that bird last night?"

'I went, "No, no, no, never" and you went, "You should have"'

He previously said he and the woman, who was only a few years older than him, had 'timid, awkward sex' that left him feeling like he 'loved' her. 

But despite his seemingly fond memories of their encounter, the experience was not romantic. Brand could hear his father, lying with two women in the bed next to him, scream out 'Bleeding hell! I'm going to be sick!'.

Writing about it years later, Brand seemed unable to frame any kind of normal moral response to the incident.

He added: 'During the rest of that holiday I f****d loads more prostitutes and never wore a condom... my sexuality had morphed forever from bewildered innocence into something more complex and rapacious.'

And he said that his father praised him for having sex with the prostitute, telling him: 'I went away wiv a boy but I'm coming back wiv a man.'

In his first autobiography My Booky Wook, Brand also told how Ron allowed his son to dip into his collection of pornographic magazines when he was still at primary school and to watch porn videos.

He now faces spending two-thirds of his 10-and-a-half-year sentence behind bars.

After his sentencing on Monday, his father attempted to claim his son was the true 'victim' of the case, despite his convictions for attacks on four different women. 

Asked by a reporter if he had a message for his son's victims, he said: 'The victims, what victims? What Russell?' 

After the reporter said she meant 'his victims', he continued: 'The girls you mean, who chased and harassed him.'

Ron said he 'didn't care' that his son had been convicted and hit out at 'the system'.

Meanwhile Mr Justice Bennathan slammed Brand's 'staggering arrogance'.

The judge told Brand: 'About 20 years ago, Russell Brand, you were becoming famous, you were clever, and in many people's eyes you were funny and charismatic.

'You had also become a sexual predator.'

The judge said Brand's 'status protected you' until in 2023 journalists from The Sunday Times, The Times and Channel 4 Dispatches first exposed a litany of sexual misconduct, leading to women making complaints to police.

He said Brand harboured a 'casual arrogant disregard to any woman's right to say no to you', while his fame meant he believed 'you could act when you liked and how you liked'.

The judge said the evidence in the case also showed that Brand's entourage during his celebrity heyday had 'indulged your dreadful behaviour'.

The judge imposed a nine-year jail term for the rape, and added on an extra year and a half for the sexual assaults.

One of the victims called Brand 'a sexual predator who has no remorse for how his behaviour has impacted my life'.

The rape victim told the court how she was a big fan of Brand before going to see him at the Hammersmith Apollo in 2009, and she was picked out of the crowd by the comedian to join him backstage.

She later agreed to visit Brand's £2.3million townhouse in Hampstead Village, north London, to have sex.

But she said that consensual sex turned to rape after he removed his condom and had anal sex with her without her consent.

The court heard how Brand ignored her pleas for him to stop, and pinned her down so she was struggling to breathe, before telling her to clean up afterwards.

He was convicted of sexually assaulting a female Channel 4 worker during a recording session in 2009, shortly after he had started dating Ms Perry.

The woman, who was working alone with Brand and his entourage, was forced to massage the star when he threatened to derail the recording session, at which point he knelt down and thrust his head into her groin.

Brand was also found guilty by the jury of sexually assaulting an MTV worker in a Soho bar in 2004 during a birthday party.

Brand, wearing a 'weird maniacal grin', grabbed the woman's breasts within seconds of meeting her.

He was also found guilty of sexually assaulting a Capital Radio worker when she bumped into him in a corridor in 2005.

She told the court Brand kissed her 'sloppily', groped her body, and just laughed when she eventually managed to push him away.
