LISTEN The Trial:A morbidly obese security guard accused of plotting to kidnap, rape and murder TV presenter Holly Willoughby told a court he 'won't be able' to stand as he began giving evidence at his trial.

Asked by the judge if he could stand for his evidence, the overweight defendant replied: 'I won't be able to.' Asked to describe the relationship, Plumb said it was 'extremely toxic', adding: 'There was constant arguments. Questioned on why he had attempted to kidnap the first air hostess, with the threat a note which said he would shoot her, Ms Wass KC: 'What was going through your mind when you wrote those notes?'

The security guard claimed to the court that he 'wasn't aware' he had an imitation firearm with him 'until I got arrested' after approaching one of the women on a train and showing her a note telling her to get off it. He said he was remanded in custody and Chelmsford Crown Court heard he later admitted attempted kidnap over the offence and was given a suspended sentence.Asked about an incident in December 2008, for which he was sentenced to 32 months in prison for the false imprisonment of two girls in a shop, he said he had a 'box-cutting safety knife' with him.
