Investigating Letzgohunting. And was a cricket ball sold at auction for a record-breaking sum one of the three balls hit by Gary Sobers in an historic innings in 1968?
Who are online paedophile hunters Letzgohunting? Marie Ashby meets the parents who pursue paedophiles by posing as young girls online. If the men agree to a meeting they confront them on camera then publish the video and pass their evidence to police. But do their methods risk interfering with police investigations and should they be doing what they do?
Also the truth about world's most expensive cricket ball. Sold at auction for a record-breaking Β£26,400, it was supposed to be one of three balls used when Gary Sobers hit an historic six sixes in one over in 1968. But research by journalist Grahame Lloyd has revealed the ball sold was the wrong make and could not have been bowled to Sobers by Glamorgan's Malcolm Nash at St Helen's.
And fifty years ago Reverend Teddy Boston transformed his back garden in a little railway, complete with steam trains and track. It was to become an unlikely tourist trap - and for decades visitors flocked to the village of Cadeby where he lived. Des Coleman tells the story of Leicestershire's railway reverend.
