Why would anyone want to chop down the world famous Sycamore Gap tree that had stood by Hadrians Wall for more than a century? The two hapless locals found guilty showed no remorse and still haven't explained their actions. Called cowards and morons during their trial, if they wanted infamy they succeeded but now they face up to ten years in jail. Martin Frizell and Professor of Criminology David Wilson discuss this absorbing case just hours after the jury returned the unanimous guilty verdict.
