'Make most of every day with family, says husband and dad of crossbow victims

Speaking through his friend, broadcaster Matt Chapman, Mr Hunt urged people to “make the most of every day because you just don’t know”.

The BBC 5 live commentator and Sky Sports racing presenter said he had been left devastated by the death of Carol Hunt, 61, along with daughters Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25. The three family members were found fatally injured at their quiet suburban home in Bushey, Hertfordshire, last Tuesday.

Kyle Clifford, 26, was arrested on suspicion of their murders after he was found with injuries in the Hilly Fields area of Enfield, north London a day later. On Monday, detectives said they were yet to question the man. At the weekend, a statement was issued by Mr Hunt and his third daughter Amy in which they said “the devastation we are experiencing cannot be put into words” as they thanked the public for their support.

The BBC's Wallace problem goes beyond MasterChef

Is the fate of a television cookery presenter more important than Syrian insurgents seizing Aleppo and the turmoil on the streets in Georgia? The BBC thinks so, based on its news judgements in recent days, which have seen exhaustive coverage of the accusations against Gregg Wallace take precedence over matters of life and death around the world.
