A MISSING man from Cartmel is to feature in a BBC television programme in the hope some light will be shed on his disappearance 12 years ago.

Marcus Rigby was 27 years old when he left his parents' home at Beckside Farm, Beckside, in Cartmel, in April 1995.

He was said to be in good spirits and was planning to look for work in Dorset.

Despite numerous attempts to find Mr Rigby, who would be 40 in October this year, all leads have turned cold.

His details are now set to appear in a BBC programme called Missing, to be screened over two weeks on April 16 and 23.
