A man's been arrested on suspicion of murder after 39 bodies were found in the back of a lorry in Essex.

The vehicle is thought to have travelled from Bulgaria to the UK, going via Ireland.

Also in today's episode: a man who went shopping in Kent before going on the run after murdering a man in a London bar has been jailed, campaigners against a quarry are raffling off a holiday to Florida to help pay legal fees, and the Gillingham manager is not happy with last night's 1-1 draw with Shrewsbury Town.
