Thought this warranted its own thread. I'm old enough to remember some of the coverage when the Yorkshire Ripper was news, many moons ago...

It's looking very likely we have a new serial killer seeking fame. And you just wait for the tabloids tomorrow.............He'll get it.

So far today...

Julie Ettchingham and Jeremy T from Sky on location.
George Alagiah there for the Six.
No 'stars' from News 24 though, which was surprising.

And with reports that a 5th prostitute going missing, this story is only going to get bigger.

Who needs the tabloids when Sky and the Beeb have already gone overboard by pitching up camp in Ipswich ?

Watch closely to see who JT interviews, he spoke to the killer last time!

BREAKING NEWS: Two bodies found by police investigating deaths of three women in Suffolk.

Channel 4 just had a News report on this during Deal or No Deal ad break.

ITV had a News Report just after CITV and Five had it as one of the headlines in their preview of their evening news bulletin - so far it seems that the BBC are the only terrestrial channel not to have reported the latest news.

Natasha brought a news report just before the Weakest Link on BBC2. Who did the ITV news report?

Very rare really for C4 News to have a news report - though they do always have a preview of the bulletin in the late afternoon.

It's strange how there always seems to be a big story in the run up to Christmas (probably just after most channels have filmed their reviews of the year!)

Yeah you have a point there...............there is always a big story at Xmas. but I think this is different. The UK hasn't seen a serial killer for some time, and this is developing into a really big story.
