Celebrities including Kate Moss, Joanna Lumley, Jude Law, Sienna Miller and Will Young were named as some of the victims of phone hacking as the trial of former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks and ex-spin doctor Andy Coulson opened.
Royal Lord Frederick Windsor and Princes William and Harry's former private secretary Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton also had their voicemails hacked, prosecutors claim.
And former deputy prime minister Lord Prescott, ex-home secretary David Blunkett and Labour MP Tessa Jowell were some of the politicians who were targeted, the court heard.
Prosecutor Andrew Edis QC told jurors that they would hear further information on Thursday about some of the famous figures who were hacked, including details about how 13 recordings of Lord Windsor's voicemails were recovered during the police investigation.
Meanwhile, there is evidence that the voicemail of Lowther-Pinkerton - recently named as one of Prince George's godparents - was listened to from a News International phone line, Mr Edis said.
