OWEN OYSTON - who earlier this week was moved to Wymott Prison - is back on national television next week - starring in a half-hour Channel4 profile on the events leading up to his recent six-year sentence for rape.

The programme, The Trials of O.J.Oyston, goes out at 11pm next Wednesday, June 19.

Director Dominique Walker and a production team followed Oyston around for several weeks before and during his last trial at Liverpool Crown Court.

They had access to his home, Claughton Hall, near Lancaster, and taped lengthy interviews with him.

The programme also focuses on newspaper coverage of the Oyston case and freelance investigative reporter Andrew Rosthorn and the legendary JBD (John Burke-Davies of the Daily Sport) are pictured musing on how the combination of sex and money guaranteed headlines.
