This week, we cover the story of the court trial of a St Leonards man accused of murdering two women, which started on Tuesday.

The issue of sewage discharges in the seas was also raised in Parliament by Bexhill and Battle MP Huw Merriman and Sally-Ann Hart, Hastings and Rye MP.

And you can also see the story of the Hastings bonfire effigy, which this year took a swipe at Southern Water over recent sewage discharges in the sea.
