Man jailed for 15 years for Holly Willoughby murder plot

A security guard has been jailed for plotting to kidnap, rape and murder TV presenter Holly Willoughby.

Gavin Plumb, 37, was obsessed with the then-This Morning host who left the ITV show after 14 years last October following his arrest.

DCI Greg Wood gave a statement after the sentence and paid tribute to the TV presenter and the other women who Plumb had sought to harm.

Judge Mr Justice Edward Murray told Plumb he had intended to carry out a "sadistic, brutal and degrading" attack on Willoughby and "harm her husband and children".
