London Tonight Tonight Wednesday 9th May

Good afternoon:
Our producer, Faye, is taking delivery of two kittens this evening: not the most important event, I concede, but WE have heard so much about it we felt it was only fair that YOU were informed too.
Pop group Squeeze had a celebrated hit song , Cool For Cats, some little time ago, and they are back with a bang: in part to celebrate Faye's great news, they are live in the studio with us tonight.
Ellen MacArthur is a wonderful yachtswoman who famously raced around the world in a twin-hulled racing yacht which some call a Catamaran - the feline reference here is genuinely coincidental. Well she's been on the Thames and is organising a series of races across Europe. More anon.

On the weightier side of the agenda, Police in the West Midlands and Yorkshire have arrested four people including the widow of the 7/7 mastermind Mohammad Sidique Khan: they are being held at Paddington Green and we'll have the latest from there and, we hope, from Birmingham and Yorkshire.
Still no good news about little Madeleine McCann, missing for 6 days in Portugal: Chelsea's John Terry has made an appeal for her safe return.
Meantime, talking of Chelsea, what were the board of directors doing, wandering around Imperial Wharf with clipboards and what looked suspiciously like architects drawings? We think you should be told, so we will tell you.

A man asked a lad to stop chucking chips at his girlfriend as they travelled home on the bus. The man responded, allegedly, by stabbing the lad in the head. He died. The girlfriend gave evidence this afternoon. Powerful stuff.
And the dregs have been busy again: an 84 year old blind woman has had the dog she was training up to be her guide stolen. More details at six so you might be able to help nail them.
Nothing on catapults, cat-o'-nine-tails, catalogues, mogs, toms or feral felines - unless, of course, there are developments!

See you at 6

Alastair and Katie.
