:01:43. > :01:44.author, Helen Bailey, has been found guilty

:01:45. > :01:46.of murdering her and dumping her body in a cesspit

:01:47. > :01:48.under their home in Hertfordshire. Ian Stewart, who's 56, drugged

:01:49. > :01:53.Ms Bailey over several months, before smothering her in April last

:01:54. > :01:56.year in the hope of claiming Detectives are now re-examining

:01:57. > :02:02.the death of Stewart's previous partner, his wife,

:02:03. > :02:06.Diane, who died suddenly in 2010. Our home affairs correspondent

:02:07. > :02:23.June Kelly reports. Well, Jane, Helen Bailey's nickname

:02:24. > :02:27.for Ian Stewart was the gorgeous grey-haired widower. He was

:02:28. > :02:31.described as a devious killer in court and a full-blown liar. Within

:02:32. > :02:34.hours of killing Helen Bailey, he was siphoning thousands from her

:02:35. > :02:39.bank account. A couple of months later he went on holiday to Spain,

:02:40. > :02:40.and it was a few weeks later that he got back from holiday that he got a

:02:41. > :02:43.knock on his door from the police. Police recorded Ian Stewart's

:02:44. > :02:45.arrest at his home. We're arresting you on suspicion

:02:46. > :02:48.of the murder of Helen Bailey. He was stunned he'd

:02:49. > :02:51.finally been caught out. For three months, he'd been living

:02:52. > :02:54.with the body of his wealthy partner My name is Helen Bailey

:02:55. > :03:01.and I'd like to introduce you to my new book, which is called

:03:02. > :03:04.When Bad Things Happen Helen Bailey was

:03:05. > :03:09.a successful author. As well as murdering her,

:03:10. > :03:12.Stewart also killed her dachshund After her husband's death,

:03:13. > :03:21.Helen began blogging about her sense of loss and it was through Facebook

:03:22. > :03:24.bereavement group that she met She thought she'd

:03:25. > :03:30.found a new soul mate. But while she was planning their

:03:31. > :03:37.wedding, he was planning her murder. Last spring, she suddenly vanished

:03:38. > :03:41.from their million pound home It took Ian Stewart five days

:03:42. > :03:50.to report her missing. 'My partner has been

:03:51. > :03:53.missing since Monday, Despite appeals from

:03:54. > :03:58.family and friends, Three months after she disappeared,

:03:59. > :04:05.police came back here and began searching places they had not

:04:06. > :04:08.looked at before. The garage was at a

:04:09. > :04:23.distance from the house. This laser imaging illustrates how

:04:24. > :04:26.under a hatch door there was a well with a cesspit.

:04:27. > :04:31.The police began probing, and it was here, below

:04:32. > :04:36.And buried with her was her dog, Boris.

:04:37. > :04:39.There was even a possibility that she may still have been alive

:04:40. > :04:45.This CCTV shows how, within hours, Ian Stewart drove to a rubbish tip

:04:46. > :04:53.Was that duvet taken to the tip because it had Helen's blood on it?

:04:54. > :04:55.In police interviews, Stewart said nothing.

:04:56. > :04:57.He probably smothered Helen Bailey after drugging her over a long

:04:58. > :05:09.He was set to benefit massively from her ?4 million fortune.

:05:10. > :05:11.If Helen had written a book of this story,

:05:12. > :05:16.He probably planned it all from the day he met her.

:05:17. > :05:20.In hindsight, I do think he loved her at all.

:05:21. > :05:31.With his criminal trial over, we can now report that the police

:05:32. > :05:33.are re-examining her sudden death, said to have been caused

:05:34. > :05:40.At this stage, there's no indication of anything suspicious.

:05:41. > :05:43.I think it's only right that I consider what might have happened

:05:44. > :05:45.in Ian Stewart's past, to see whether there's anything

:05:46. > :05:48.I need to get involved in, whether there's any fresh evidence

:05:49. > :05:52.that might have come out from this trial.

:05:53. > :05:55.After his wife died, Ian Stewart was seen with other

:05:56. > :06:00.women before he began his predatory pursuit of Helen Bailey.

:06:01. > :06:03.As a writer, she was used to studying human behaviour.

:06:04. > :06:06.But she never learned the true character of the man who was closest

:06:07. > :06:16.to her and who she thought she knew best.

:06:17. > :06:23.Well, in ten two was found guilty of six charges, including fraud and as

:06:24. > :06:28.the guilty verdicts were brought in, he shook his head. He is now facing

:06:29. > :06:32.a fresh and best a geisha over the death of his wife, Diane. Helen

:06:33. > :06:35.Bailey has elderly parents and her mother testified by video link in

:06:36. > :06:41.the trial and her brother has been in the court throughout. He said his

:06:42. > :06:43.thoughts were with the family of Ian Stewart. What Stewart had done had

:06:44. > :06:47.left them all devastated, he said. The Supreme Court has ruled

:06:48. > :06:49.that the government has the right to set a minimum wage that British

:06:50. > :06:52.citizens must earn before bringing a foreign husband

:06:53. > :06:55.or wife into the country. People affected by the rules had

:06:56. > :06:57.argued that the minimum income level, currently ?18,600 a year,

:06:58. > :07:02.was unreasonably high, but the court ruled that the measures don't breach

:07:03. > :07:06.human rights legislation. Our home affairs correspondent

:07:07. > :07:11.Daniel Sandford reports. They look like any other family

:07:12. > :07:14.but Caroline Coombs, her husband Carlos, from Ecuador,

:07:15. > :07:17.and their 15-month-old son Thomas live in a permanent state

:07:18. > :07:21.of uncertainty, not knowing whether they will be able to stay together

:07:22. > :07:26.in Britain because Caroline, a former television producer,

:07:27. > :07:33.is earning less than ?18,000 a year, which, under new immigration rules,

:07:34. > :07:36.is not enough to bring a foreign We are two very capable human

:07:37. > :07:41.beings, who happened And we were being told

:07:42. > :07:52.we were going to be split up. And we weren't being given

:07:53. > :07:59.the right to be a family... The Supreme Court ruling today said

:08:00. > :08:06.the new rules were "defective", particularly when it came

:08:07. > :08:08.to children, but it found the controversial MIR, the Minimum

:08:09. > :08:12.Income Requirement, did not It holds that the MIR

:08:13. > :08:20.is acceptable in principle, but the rules and instructions fail

:08:21. > :08:23.to take proper account of the Section 55 duty,

:08:24. > :08:27.in respect of children. Although the government has

:08:28. > :08:31.technically lost this case in the Supreme Court on the way it

:08:32. > :08:34.implements its new rule, it is, nonetheless, a victory

:08:35. > :08:37.for ministers, on the principle that people on low incomes cannot just

:08:38. > :08:41.assume that their foreign husband or wife can

:08:42. > :08:46.automatically join them in Britain. It is considered reasonable

:08:47. > :08:48.to expect you to leave the UK... But Caroline and Carlos

:08:49. > :08:51.do now have a chance, because the Home Office agreed today

:08:52. > :08:54.to carefully consider what the Supreme Court had said

:08:55. > :08:58.about how the rules are unlawful because they do not pay enough

:08:59. > :09:01.attention to the best For all the other kids that

:09:02. > :09:13.are out there, for all the other mums who are

:09:14. > :09:18.suffering every day. Can I sleep thinking that I don't

:09:19. > :09:23.have to leave the country? Many thousands of couples were

:09:24. > :09:26.affected by the new laws which were designed to reduce the cost

:09:27. > :09:30.of immigrants claiming benefits. Families with children now

:09:31. > :09:34.have a second chance, as do couples with other

:09:35. > :09:36.sources of income. But, for many, the minimum

:09:37. > :09:38.income requirement will still stop them

:09:39. > :09:48.being reunited in Britain. A former independent reviewer

:09:49. > :09:49.of terrorism legislation, Lord Carlile, has said

:09:50. > :09:53.a British Islamic State fighter who carried out a suicide bombing

:09:54. > :09:57.in Iraq was an "enemy of the state" who should never have been paid

:09:58. > :10:10.compensation by the government. The former Prime Minister Tony Blair

:10:11. > :10:16.has hit out at press reports criticising his role in the matter,

:10:17. > :10:21.saying the compensation for Muslim converts time in Pontal obey was

:10:22. > :10:27.agreed on by a Conservative led government. We will have more later

:10:28. > :10:30.but first let's talk to our security correspondent, Frank Gardner. This

:10:31. > :10:34.individual himself, is it embarrassing how big an intelligence

:10:35. > :10:40.failure it is that he was able to do what he did in a rock? It isn't as

:10:41. > :10:46.big as it might seem because when he came out of band have obey in 2004,

:10:47. > :10:50.he was assessed whether or not he was going to be a threat to British

:10:51. > :10:55.security, to the safety of British citizens. And is he involved in

:10:56. > :11:00.violent extremism. The answer was no at the time. He may have basically

:11:01. > :11:08.been in waiting, a terrorist in waiting, as it were but the ten

:11:09. > :11:12.years in between before he joined Islamic State, he didn't show his

:11:13. > :11:16.hand, so he would have been under some kind of surveillance, not

:11:17. > :11:20.particularly heavy one, and it may be he had no connections and

:11:21. > :11:25.sympathies with extremism at that time but just before he went off to

:11:26. > :11:30.Syria, he then started to get involved and went off and joined IS.

:11:31. > :11:35.What all of this throws into question is whether they are getting

:11:36. > :11:40.the right assessment today for the hundreds of returns who have either

:11:41. > :11:44.come back from the arena of Syria and Iraq or still out there. They're

:11:45. > :11:49.not going to get it right every time. So I think there is a tacit

:11:50. > :11:54.admission in Whitehall that this guy slipped through the net, they got it

:11:55. > :11:59.wrong, but they will try, I suppose, that much harder to not make the

:12:00. > :12:04.same mistakes with others. Thank you. Let's talk to our assistant

:12:05. > :12:08.political editor, Norman Smith. It is a very strongly worded statement

:12:09. > :12:12.from Tony Blair about this. You sense there is a hunt on for a

:12:13. > :12:16.political scalp, for someone to be blamed for the government

:12:17. > :12:22.campaigning for the release of this man then him being paid ?1 million,

:12:23. > :12:26.then escaping to Syria. The Daily Mail in its coverage apportions much

:12:27. > :12:30.of the blame on Tony Blair, suggesting in one headline, still

:12:31. > :12:34.think he wasn't a danger, Mr Blair? It is a taut which has prompted a

:12:35. > :12:39.furious response. Mr Blair says he only argued for the release of these

:12:40. > :12:43.men after pressure from lawyers, MPs, the media and the Daily Mail,

:12:44. > :12:51.whom he says noted after their release they are not bad guys, they

:12:52. > :12:54.are entirely innocent. Mr Blair also says it wasn't him who sanctioned

:12:55. > :12:59.the payment of ?1 million in compensation, that was the Cameron

:13:00. > :13:05.government. And Tory MPs wanted them released quickly. What is going on?

:13:06. > :13:10.In part, it is simply Tony Blair trying to set the record straight as

:13:11. > :13:18.he sees it, but in part, too, it is personal, it is payback for years of

:13:19. > :13:23.goading of Tony Blair and Iraq. It is also breaks it. Newspapers like

:13:24. > :13:27.the Daily Mail have been at the centre of the pro-Brexit campaign

:13:28. > :13:32.and Mr Blair just the other day called for the remainder is to stand

:13:33. > :13:42.their ground, to make their case against the referendum and you sense

:13:43. > :13:44.he is trying to give a lead. The former deputy prime ministers said

:13:45. > :13:46.many remainders were frightened of papers like the Daily Mail which is

:13:47. > :13:48.why they were silent. Tony Blair is trying to put a bit of backbone into

:13:49. > :13:52.them. A new BBC TV channel

:13:53. > :13:54.for Scotland has been announced by the corporation's

:13:55. > :13:56.Director General Tony Hall. The channel will begin broadcasting

:13:57. > :13:58.in the autumn of 2018 and will have a budget

:13:59. > :14:00.of ?30 million, equivalent The plans for the channel include

:14:01. > :14:05.a Scottish news hour at 9pm with stories from Scotland,

:14:06. > :14:07.the UK and the world. Our Scotland correspondent

:14:08. > :14:24.Lorna Gordon reports. Inform, educate and entertain. The

:14:25. > :14:30.BBC's commission. Increased devolution has provided challengers

:14:31. > :14:35.for the national broadcaster. Now a new channel and a new news programme

:14:36. > :14:40.for Scotland. I think Scotland deserves its own channel. It will

:14:41. > :14:44.reflect itself, its creativity, its culture as well as its politics. I

:14:45. > :14:48.wanted to move the game on. In the end, my aim has been to think about

:14:49. > :14:54.the viewers in Scotland and what is best for them, and I think they want

:14:55. > :14:58.quality. The new channel will broadcast shows like this one,

:14:59. > :15:02.currently shown on BBC Two in Scotland but with a budget of ?30

:15:03. > :15:06.million a year, much of the five hours on programmes on offer every

:15:07. > :15:09.night will be new. There will also be an integrated NewsHour at 9pm

:15:10. > :15:15.with national and international news. It is a huge opportunity for

:15:16. > :15:21.Scotland to its -- to assert itself to itself and across the UK, and for

:15:22. > :15:25.it to reflect on some of the other things beyond politics. Scotland has

:15:26. > :15:29.a very vibrant arts and creative community. There's a real

:15:30. > :15:33.opportunity for those communities to be better reflected. Most high

:15:34. > :15:38.profile, though, has been the debate around news. The BBC said the 6pm

:15:39. > :15:41.News had performed strongly in Scotland in recent years but some

:15:42. > :15:48.have long argued for a Scottish version. They say to better reflect

:15:49. > :15:54.devolved areas like health, education and criminal justice. I

:15:55. > :15:57.welcome new jobs and new investment in BBC Scotland but I am

:15:58. > :16:00.disappointed the BBC has decided not to go ahead with the separate

:16:01. > :16:05.Scottish six on BBC One because I think this is exactly the time for

:16:06. > :16:09.the launch of that programme with all the political developments. This

:16:10. > :16:13.change to the broadcasting landscape is being described as the biggest

:16:14. > :16:19.single investment of broadcast content for more than 20 years.

:16:20. > :16:21.Challenging, yes. But bold and ambitious, too. And on air in 1.5

:16:22. > :16:28.years. A convicted murderer is on the run,

:16:29. > :16:31.after armed men helped him escape Shaun Walmsley is one of four men

:16:32. > :16:35.serving a life sentence for a fatal Walmsley fled as he was getting

:16:36. > :16:41.into a car with prison officers Our correspondent Fiona Trott

:16:42. > :16:59.is at the hospital now. Sean Walmsley was here for an

:17:00. > :17:02.appointment and when he was coming out the prison officers who

:17:03. > :17:06.accompanied him were threatened by masked men. One put a gun to his

:17:07. > :17:10.head and another had a knife at his neck. They only had a bat on to

:17:11. > :17:14.defend themselves and that is raising questions this afternoon.

:17:15. > :17:18.Was there enough security for the hospital visit and how did people on

:17:19. > :17:23.the outside know exactly where this prayer was. -- this prisoner.

:17:24. > :17:24.Wanted by police, Shaun Walmsley is described

:17:25. > :17:26.as highly dangerous, a murderer, who should

:17:27. > :17:29.The police hunt has brought officers here, the Walton

:17:30. > :17:33.A house and a car were searched late last night, less

:17:34. > :17:37.than two miles from where he escaped.

:17:38. > :17:39.It happened at the Aintree University Hospital yesterday

:17:40. > :17:47.As he left, masked men threatened the prison staff with

:17:48. > :17:51.what is believed to have been a gun and a knife.

:17:52. > :17:53.Today Merseyside Police are appealing for the public's

:17:54. > :18:04.There will be lots of people who will have

:18:05. > :18:07.I am really appealing to them to come

:18:08. > :18:11.I need the public's help to get Walmsley back into prison.

:18:12. > :18:14.He is a highly dangerous, vicious individual.

:18:15. > :18:19.This is why Shaun Walmsley is well known on

:18:20. > :18:23.Back in 2014 he murdered a local man, Anthony Duffy, what

:18:24. > :18:24.police described as a frenzied attack.

:18:25. > :18:27.He was jailed for life and is serving a minimum term of 30

:18:28. > :18:32.So was there enough security surrounding this man at

:18:33. > :18:37.And how did people on the outside know exactly where he was?

:18:38. > :18:40.These questions will form part of the police and Ministry of

:18:41. > :18:55.Police said that the big old Volvo they believe was used as the getaway

:18:56. > :19:00.car has now been found. Forensics teams are examining that at the

:19:01. > :19:03.moment. But is also looking at CCTV pictures from the hospital grounds

:28:30. > :28:32.Dresses that have lingered in the memory.

:29:14. > :29:16.She knows what suits her and she wears it well.

:29:17. > :29:21.And the exhibition organisers can be confident that the crowds will come

:29:27. > :29:28.Interest in Diana remains considerable.

:29:29. > :29:33.But one imagines that her family would hope that she will be

:29:46. > :29:47.I think that is a very good question because Diana herself

:29:48. > :29:50.did not like to be known as a clothes horse.

:29:51. > :29:52.However, she did understand the language of fashion

:29:53. > :29:56.very well and she used clothes to help her do the job at hand.

:29:57. > :29:58.She was a very proud ambassador for British

:29:59. > :30:01.fashion as Princess of Wales, but she also

:30:02. > :30:03.used clothes to help her do

:30:08. > :30:15.And to focus the press attention on her charity work.

:31:50. > :31:52.for the rush-hour tomorrow. The snow moves a little further south but for

:31:53. > :31:57.the rest of us just a nasty morning with areas of wind and rain. Some

:31:58. > :32:02.brightness in between but focusing on the next elements of severe

:32:03. > :32:07.weather, that wind. An amber warning in force and it will be disruptive
