Epstein Files: New Pictures Appear to Show Andrew

More than three million pages of documents related to the sex offender - Jeffrey Epstein - were released on Friday.

New pictures appear to show Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor kneeling over a female lying on the ground, as well as emails to and from a man referred to as “The Duke”.

Other emails show Epstein sent £10,000 to Lord Peter Mandelson's husband Reinaldo Avila da Silva in 2009, and the US President Donald Trump is mentioned hundreds of times.

There is no suggestion of wrongdoing, and all the men mentioned have denied wrongdoing.

Laura and Paddy look at what light they shed on what happened with Gary O’Donoghue, chief North America correspondent.

Plus, new candidates are announced for the Gorton & Denton by-election.
