Holly Willoughby obsessed Gavin Plumb sings 'you'll never walk

Morbidly obese Gavin Plumb, 37, claimed he wasn't physically capable of abducting the former This Morning presenter, had no one qualified to drive to her London home, and that vile conversations he had with 'like-minded' people in dark recesses of the internet were 'just online chat'. But a jury took 12 hours and 19 minutes to find him guilty after being presented with a raft of shocking evidence, including a chloroform restraint kit that he planned to use it to kidnap Ms Willoughby. He then planned to take the TV presenter to an isolated stud farm for sexual torture, kill her and dump her body in a lake. Ms Willoughby said following the verdict: 'As women we should not be made to feel unsafe going about our daily lives and in our own homes. I will forever be grateful to the undercover police officer who understood the imminent threat, and to the Metropolitan and Essex police forces for their swift response.'
