Barry George has denied murdering Jill Dando
The trial of the man accused of killing TV presenter Jill Dando has been adjourned until 23 April.

Reasons for the adjournment cannot be reported under a Contempt of Court order made by Mr Justice Gage, presiding at the Old Bailey.

Barry George, 40, from Fulham, west London, has denied murdering 37-year-old Miss Dando on the doorstep of her home in Fulham, on 26 April, 1999.

Legal arguments began on Monday, with the prosecution led by Orlando Pownall, and Mr George, also known as Barry Bulsara, being defended by Michael Mansfield QC.
