involving memorabilia which he claimed was his own memorabilia that the man was attempting to steal. he served the sentence, nine out of 33 years and is now a reformed man, he says, but not without a flash of temper in front of the judges when he suggested that it wasn't his memorabilia that he was trying to get back. but for the younger generation that maybe don't remember the original trial and all the drama, there was a dramatisation recently drama, there was a dramatisation rece ntly o n drama, there was a dramatisation recently on tv recreating the whole thing so he is familiar notary a lot of people. many more so than just people who remember the first time round. the thing i really remember was that the trial was of course televised. in this country they are not, and it became almost a soap opera playing out, even though it was actually happening and that 1.100 million people tuned in. that isa 1.100 million people tuned in. that

is a huge number and prime—time tv doesn't get that. then one that was subsequently a civil case against him where ended up being asked to pay 33 million in the judgment to one of the victims' families, that wasn't on television, and the judge made the controversial decision that it should use artist sketches and once again back on our screens, and is it real? actually happening. it is it real? actually happening. it is astonishing. and he was incredibly grateful and said thank you to the pro commissioners. let's go on to brexit which is once again across go on to brexit which is once again a cross m ost go on to brexit which is once again across most of the front pages including the times. very interesting story, looking like a briefing from the treasury saying theresa may is ready to offer eu citizens free movement to britain forup to citizens free movement to britain

for up to two years after brexit and this is philip hammond's plans. philip hammond for some time has been pushing for the transitional arrangements oi’ been pushing for the transitional arrangements or we been pushing for the transitional arrangements or we don't suddenly reach a cliff edge at the end of talks. key to this story and find this briefing is about free movement and the times suggests that previously had brexit ears and the cabinet have been won over. it is interesting the language used, that now the chancellor believes he has won them around. it indicates the briefing comes from the treasury. he talks about borders being open for two years after brexit. the guardian talks about up to four years of free movement and later downgrades to three, so irrespective of how long it ends up being, the fact that philip hammond from this perspective seems to be coming at the vector is

the remainders, the soft brexit. sort of struggle with the cabinet between hard and soft brexit, is that right? i think it is quite a positive move. we never expected is going to be all hard or soft brexit. hard and soft at the same time? we talk about a garden thriving in the new sunshine after brexit. some will flourish, some will die. what we are seeing isa flourish, some will die. what we are seeing is a bit of give and take so we are not going to get a complete end to free movement. neither are we going to get it continuing but what we get is a bit of give and take. it shows the negotiations are starting to take shape. very poetic analogy. the telegraph also going on brexit but with a different angle, foreign criminals staying after brexit. this

is based around one of the key elements discussed today. this was britain's desire for every eu national resident in the uk to be granted this settled status, if they have been here for five years, granted this settled status, if they have been here forfive years, a criminal record check, and the concern from the eu that actually that would undermine the rights, it would be unlawful to have a blanket criminal records check on everybody, and the angle the telegraph has taken is that without this check, how would british authorities and all who was here and therefore foreign criminals who may have committed crimes overseas could be permitted to stay, which is one of the big controversial issues in the brexit campaign, of britain be gaining the power to be able to send people back to wherever they came from. and in the middle of all of

this, theresa may, we're hearing, going off hiking for three weeks, going off hiking for three weeks, going on a three—week walking holiday to italy and switzerland with her husband philip. it was when she was walking before that she changed her mind, famously, about having a general election, which didn't work out too well. the cabinet will be hoping she doesn't make any big decisions on the alps this time because that is what she did in snowdonia, calling the election but resulted in losing the majority. she will be crossing the free border between italy and switzerland with her husband for three weeks. speculation over who is minding the shop while she is away. damian green is first minute of state so during the summer last year borisjohnson had state so during the summer last year boris johnson had a state so during the summer last year borisjohnson had a short term in charge. i can't see that's been

repeated this time somehow. you'd editor was saying she is a dead woman walking not long ago but she is still hanging on. how do you rate her chances of prime ministerial survival at the moment? not brilliant but every day she clings on makes it a little bit easierfor her. the biggest things in her favour are brexit negotiations and the fear of having somebody else ta ke the fear of having somebody else take over that the talks end up falling apart one where another because somebody new comes in, and the more important one when it comes to the conservative party as there would be huge pressure for the new leader to holding your election and they are terrified it leads to jeremy corbyn. the daily mirror has a front—page seeing cops quiz kids age four and this is an angle on the rising crime story we have been reporting all day. the matter have

focused on on the numbers of people carrying knives, a big problem in this country, i am sure not that many aged four, but never the less they have highlighted the declining age. what i find more alarming is the overall rise in violent crime, up the overall rise in violent crime, up by the overall rise in violent crime, up by 18%, sexual crimes by 40%, and public disorder by 39%. i would suggest labour seize upon this if these figures, it before prime ministers questions yesterday. the cause of the issue of police numbers. the conservatives cut police numbers because crime had been falling. my view personally is that if the signs are that crime is rising then you have to increase numbers. and of course labour won't let the conservatives forget that the prime minister was home secretary had a long period and were substantial changes such as her

shift on the government stance on stop and search which lots of people have suggested might have contributed to a rise in more young people carrying knives, emboldened because they are less likely to be stopped by the police. we have also got the guardian was an interesting story about the muslim mother launching legal action against her daughter's school after being told she could not way they face veil while visiting the premises. the story was around the other week about face veils. this is quite an interesting one because it is not a teacher wearing the veil, it is the mother of the pupil, and she has basically been told, you're not welcome wearing a face veil. i suppose the school has a right to do it but it seems a little harsh of it asa it but it seems a little harsh of it as a mother. we are not secular france, we respect the religious right to wear what you want and it was a school premises but she is not

ina was a school premises but she is not in a position of authority. this is holland park school. the socialist eastern. all eyes, the guardian very interested in what is going on, so we interested in what is going on, so we will watch how it all plays out. the last front pages the daily express and they are seeing snoring can put people at greater risk of developing dementia, researchers have discovered. scientists found that those who suffer difficulties breathing during their sleep at higher risk of brain function decline. it seems that snoring is linked to the brain's inability to believe is while one is sleeping, it says about a fifth the people have this issue. it is an early warning system. i guess this sort of scientific discovery gives scientists and medical professionals more chance of finding ways to

tackle this complaint. it is interesting the number of front pages you see on alzheimer's and dementia as obviously the incidence of them are increasing as the population is getting older. every day there is a story about a potential breakthrough. yesterday we had stories about how you should exercise your brain more, do spanish crossword puzzles, so it is something people are interested more in as they see the scale. and a lot of advice on how to avoid it, more exercise kind of thing. it is good the to—do has gone as it has on many things in life and people are less ashamed of it talking mental illness. and a little bird tells me you have a bit of a snoring issue? sol you have a bit of a snoring issue? soiam you have a bit of a snoring issue? so i am told. i have to lie on my side. mrs wooding has communicated that! the nation needs to know these kinds of things! i am sure it is not
