:00:11. > :00:18.A man's body found on Saddleworth Moor in December 2015 -

:00:19. > :00:20.has finally been identified following an international

:00:21. > :00:26.Detectives pieced together CCTV footage, medical records

:00:27. > :00:27.and travel information to solve the mystery

:00:28. > :00:33.Today, he was finally named as David Lytton.

:00:34. > :00:40.For more than a year his identity was a mystery.

:00:41. > :00:43.Now we can finally put a name to the face.

:00:44. > :00:45.The body of 67-year-old David Lytton was found

:00:46. > :00:46.on Saddleworth Moor on December 12th 2015.

:00:47. > :00:49.He had no wallet, no ID, no phone and was

:00:50. > :01:07.David had been living in Pakistan, in Lahore, since 2006.

:01:08. > :01:10.Mr Lytton left Lahore in Pakistan on December 10th 2015 and arrived

:01:11. > :01:12.at London Heathrow the following day.

:01:13. > :01:14.He then took the train from the capital to

:01:15. > :01:25.Later he arrived at the Clarence pub in Saddleworth where he asked

:01:26. > :01:29.landlord Melvin Robinson directions to the top of the mountain.

:01:30. > :01:32.I always think back, could I have asked more questions?

:01:33. > :01:34.Could I have said this, could I have said that?

:01:35. > :01:36.With hindsight, everything is easy, isn't it?

:01:37. > :01:38.You know, at least we have got some conclusion now

:01:39. > :01:48.This is Dovestone Reservoir that Mr Lytton trekked

:01:49. > :01:53.Why he travelled such a distance and why he

:01:54. > :01:54.came to this location remains a mystery.

:01:55. > :01:56.Among the theories investigated and later discounted by

:01:57. > :01:58.detectives, whether Mr Lytton had a personal connection

:01:59. > :02:01.to a 1949 plane crash close to where his body was found.

:02:02. > :02:04.BBC journalist Jon Manel has followed the story closely from

:02:05. > :02:06.There are so many unanswered questions.

:02:07. > :02:10.A man who the police believed took his own life in December 2015

:02:11. > :02:16.and compounded by the fact they had no idea who he was for so long.

:02:17. > :02:19.He had been named Neil Dovestones by local mortuary workers

:02:20. > :02:22.because of where his body was discovered.

:02:23. > :02:25.David Lytton finally has his identiy back but he remains a man

:02:26. > :02:34.The family of a Blackpool couple who were killed while

:02:35. > :02:37.on holiday in Tunisia have told an inquest their lives have

:02:38. > :02:40.been torn apart by an evil and twisted ideology.

:02:41. > :02:43.Dennis and Elaine Thwaites were sunbathing on the beach

:02:44. > :02:46.at Sousse in June 2015 - when they were shot dead

:02:47. > :03:04.Elaine and Dennis of the weight's daughter Lindsay was that the court

:03:05. > :03:11.today with her husband Danny by her side. He read out a statement she

:03:12. > :03:17.had written. Of her mother, she said her heart is smashed into pieces. Of

:03:18. > :03:26.her father, I loved my dad. He was my shining light. They talked about

:03:27. > :03:31.the past and his former career as a footballer in the 1960s. He had a

:03:32. > :03:34.kick about with George Best in Minorca. They also talked about the

:03:35. > :03:43.future that they planned. They were going to celebrate the 70th birthday

:03:44. > :03:49.and that, of course, never happened. What did other witnesses say about

:03:50. > :03:53.this? Other witnesses described seeing them on the beach that

:03:54. > :03:57.morning, getting ready and getting the sun lounge is out. They then

:03:58. > :04:01.described the terror and panic that they realised the gunman was on the

:04:02. > :04:06.beach shooting indiscriminately at holiday-makers. One witness does we

:04:07. > :04:14.Army described later at the scene, two bodies on a sun lounge. You

:04:15. > :04:20.believed them to be Dennis and Elaine Thwaites but is not nor that

:04:21. > :04:24.for certain until you reached the UK and found out they had died. It is

:04:25. > :04:38.expected to be another four weeks before the coroner reaches his

:04:39. > :04:40.conclusion. Thank you very much. -- one witness described the scene.

:04:41. > :04:42.Hundreds of people have attended the funeral of a soldier

:04:43. > :04:45.from Middleton in Greater Manchester who died in a shooting

:04:46. > :04:48.Lance Corporal Scott Hetherington served with the 2nd Battalion Duke

:04:49. > :04:51.He was 22 and had only recently become a father.

:04:52. > :04:54.Crowds gathered as the service was relayed on speakers

:04:55. > :04:57.The daily catch limit on King Scallops has been

:04:58. > :05:01.It was introduced in November when there was a bumper crop

:05:02. > :05:04.of scallops and boats raced to land as many as they could.

:05:05. > :05:07.The government says the restrictions worked well but are no longer needed

:05:08. > :05:10.There's a call tonight for a Parliamentary debate -

:05:11. > :05:13.after it was announced many local people will be charged to cross

:05:14. > :05:17.Only people living in Halton, which sits either side of the river,

:05:18. > :05:21.But - as our Cheshire Political Reporter Phil McCann explains -

:05:22. > :05:26.the government's being accused of a U-turn.

:05:27. > :05:29.It's meant to be a ?62 million a year boost to the local economy.

:05:30. > :05:35.But it'll mean a ?1,000 a year cost at least

:05:36. > :05:38.to those who'll have to pay to cross the river and get back every day.

:05:39. > :05:40.And that will definitely include drivers who live in Frodsham.

:05:41. > :05:43.They're just five miles away from it, but unlike residents

:05:44. > :05:45.in the borough of Halton which contains the bridge,

:05:46. > :05:51.Why should they have to pay to cross the

:05:52. > :05:58.They should not have to do it really.

:05:59. > :06:01.As long as the other bridge is still operating and free.

:06:02. > :06:04.You're going to have to pay for that as well.

:06:05. > :06:08.But supporting local MPs at the last election,

:06:09. > :06:10.former chancellor George Osborne promised a review to see

:06:11. > :06:13.if the people of West Cheshire and Warrington could cross for free.

:06:14. > :06:15.This week's decision has dashed those hopes,

:06:16. > :06:16.and today Labour have called for answers.

:06:17. > :06:18.Can we have a debate so that the Government

:06:19. > :06:24.can explain why they have broken their promises to my constituents?

:06:25. > :06:26.While officials in Warrington have accused the Government of smoke

:06:27. > :06:30.I am very disappointed with the U-turn.

:06:31. > :06:33.That's what it's going to cost you, ?1,000 a year to actually

:06:34. > :06:38.A few miles up river in Warrington town centre will be the nearest

:06:39. > :06:46.place you can cross the Mersey for free

:06:47. > :06:51.That's because they'll be tolls on the old bridge, too.

:06:52. > :06:53.But the government says the cost of extending free travel

:06:54. > :06:57.That's because authorities on the other side of the water

:06:58. > :06:59.could have demanded free travel for their residents too.

:07:00. > :07:02.There are now calls for a compromise so people can continue to cross

:07:03. > :07:05.for free if they're going to work or a medical appointment.

:07:06. > :07:12.Others want a complete U-turn on the apparent U-turn.

:07:13. > :07:15.A playwright from Stockport says giving children a proper education

:07:16. > :07:20.in the arts will make Britain a better country.

:07:21. > :07:26.Simon Stephens wrote the stage version of The Curious Incident

:07:27. > :07:30.Current students from his old school have been to see

:07:31. > :07:35.I'm going to find out who really killed the dog.

:07:36. > :07:37.The play is based on Mark Haddon's book.

:07:38. > :07:39.It is the story of Christopher, a teenager with

:07:40. > :07:45.behavioural difficulties who sets out to discover who killed

:07:46. > :07:53.who uncovers truths about his own family on the way.

:07:54. > :07:55.Simon Stephens has won awards for his script.

:07:56. > :07:58.He went to Stockport School, or Mile End as it's known.

:07:59. > :08:00.He wants pupils from state schools to believe they are

:08:01. > :08:03.as entitled to a career in the arts as anyone else.

:08:04. > :08:04.I think education and the arts dignifies

:08:05. > :08:12.and empowers everybody with a spirit of empathy and communication.

:08:13. > :08:15.I think that makes the whole country better.

:08:16. > :08:18.It is not just about training artists, it is about making this

:08:19. > :08:20.Last night 200 Stockport School pupils

:08:21. > :08:22.went to the Lowry to see Simon's play.

:08:23. > :08:25.He has already been back to his old school to fire

:08:26. > :08:29.It was inspiring because he came from

:08:30. > :08:41.There is no limits to how small or big you can be in the theatre.

:08:42. > :08:44.I have always known I've wanted to do something like that but

:08:45. > :08:51.people are all suggesting different things.

:08:52. > :08:54.After the talk, I just felt it was a definitely

:08:55. > :08:57.a good option and I should follow what I want to do.

:08:58. > :09:00.The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time runs in the Lowry

:09:01. > :09:15.A spectacular production, too, by the looks of it.

:09:16. > :09:18.Football and Manchester United are through to the final

:09:19. > :09:21.of the League Cup - but not without a scare.

:09:22. > :09:23.They lost the second leg of their semi-final 2-1

:09:24. > :09:25.at Hull City tonight - which meant that this

:09:26. > :09:27.Paul Pogba goal was crucial - to send them through

:09:28. > :09:30.They'll play Southampton in the final at Wembley

:09:31. > :09:41.Straight onto the weather. Another cold day today. A horrible day

:09:42. > :09:45.today. It has been very, very cold indeed. As we head through the next

:09:46. > :09:50.couple of days, it will gradually get milder. Our Weather Watcher is

:09:51. > :09:53.trying to catch the sun. It just peeping through the haze and the

:09:54. > :10:02.cloud. Current temperatures, the isle of man, for Celsius right now.

:10:03. > :10:08.Many other places where sub zero. The change in the direction makes a

:10:09. > :10:12.significant difference. Back to the Atlantic Fleet. Things will get

:10:13. > :10:18.milder. Fairly wet from time to time. Next week, that in double

:10:19. > :10:22.figures. The 11 Celsius. Back to the moment and we dream about double

:10:23. > :10:28.figures tonight because it is so very, very cold everywhere. Blue all

:10:29. > :10:33.over the map. Freezing for a very short while tonight. Not a

:10:34. > :10:37.widespread problem. The numbers on the charts, minus two Celsius. Many

:10:38. > :10:43.places minus five Celsius spells of sunshine initially but very, very

:10:44. > :10:48.short lived. We can see how cold it continues throughout the morning.

:10:49. > :10:52.The cloud rolls in quickly, blocking out anything to do with sunshine as

:10:53. > :10:59.the day goes on. BTL and of the day, this rain coming towards us. -- the

:11:00. > :11:03.end of the day. The outlook for the recount, yes, cloud and wet weather.

:11:04. > :11:04.The weekend. It's swings and

:11:05. > :11:10.roundabouts, higher temperatures but some rain as well.

:11:11. > :11:18.Good evening. It's been dry so far this January but as it draws to a

:11:19. > :11:22.close it looks like we will see some rain at last. It's been an

:11:23. > :11:26.interesting today a bitterly cold in Norfolk, way we kept the grey cloud

:11:27. > :11:32.all day and the grey cloud gave a dusting of snow in places. This is a

:11:33. > :11:36.lovely picture sent in from Sutton Coldfield. Rob Wales and much of

:11:37. > :11:38.Scotland it's been a beautiful day, lots of sunshine and temperatures,
