Lord Archer's statues nicked

Garden sculptures belonging to Lord and Lady Archer have been stolen from their property in Cambridgeshire.

The valuable life-size sculptures were sawn off their base before being taken from the garden in Mill Way, Granchester, early on Tuesday evening.

One sculpture is of a girl doing a handstand, and the other is of a shepherd and four sheep.

Cambs Police appealed for witnesses and said the thieves would have needed a large vehicle to move the items.

Jeffrey has posted the loss on his blog.
