Yet another twist to the GMTV phone-in scandal. The station claimed it knew nothing of the way in which viewers were fooled into taking part. But the Mail on Sunday says it has obtained "damning emails" which reveal that GMTV's head of competitions, Kate Fleming, and three senior producers, must have known that winners were chosen while the public were still taking part in the contest.
It's also come to light that GMTV's managing editor, John Scammell, has been banned from driving for three years and fined £3,000 after driving in Suffolk whilst more than four times over the legal alcohol limit. He was ordered to attend a drink-driving rehabilitation course. (Via Mail on Sunday)
