A stalker with an obsession with former BBC presenter Emily Maitlis has been sentenced to eight years in jail after attempting to breach a restraining order for the 20th time.
Edward Vines, who has had a three-decade obsession with the journalist, attempted to send eight letters he had written from HMP Nottingham between May 2020 and December 2021.
A court heard that in one of his letters, Vines wrote that he would “continue to brood and to write letters in prison” unless she spoke to him about "her behaviour in 1990".
