More time in make-up artist quiz
Diane Chenery-Wickens
Diane Chenery-Wickens was last seen on 24 January
Police searching for a missing make-up artist have been granted extra time to question a man arrested on suspicion of murdering her.

Diane Chenery-Wickens, 48, from Duddleswell, East Sussex travelled from East Grinstead to London by train with her husband, David, on 24 January.

She was due to meet him after a meeting at the BBC but did not arrive.

Magistrates have given police an extra 36 hours to question a 51-year-old man arrested on Thursday.

The deadline is due to expire in the early hours of Sunday.

Police dog handlers have been searching areas of the Ashdown Forest near Mrs Chenery-Wickens's home.

Fingertip searches have taken place inside the house, garden and the grounds.

A tanker was brought in to pump out a waste tank in the garden and a car was removed from the house on a trailer.

The Bafta-nominated make-up artist has worked for more than 20 years on some of television's best-known shows, including the League of Gentleman, Casualty, Pride and Prejudice and Dead Ringers.
