Announcing the decision to dismiss the appeals from Matthews and Hoare, Lady Justice Macur said: "We are satisfied that there is no reasonable argument that the convictions are unsafe or that the sentences were wrong in principle or manifestly excessive."

Matthews was sentenced in November to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 33 years in jail after being found guilty of 16-year-old Becky's murder.

Hoare was jailed for 17 years after being convicted of manslaughter.

The killers of Bristol teenager Becky Watts have lost challenges against their convictions and sentences.

Her stepbrother Nathan Matthews, 29, and his girlfriend Shauna Hoare, 22, had their cases dismissed by three judges at the Court of Appeal in London. 

The proceedings, watched via video link from Bristol by members of Becky's family, followed an earlier rejection of the pair's applications for permission to appeal by a single judge.

Nathan Matthews and his girlfriend Shauna Hoare, who killed teenager Becky Watts, have lost Court of Appeal challenges against their convictions and sentences.

People heading for the Glastonbury Festival in camper vans are being diverted via the nearby Bath and West Showground site.

From there they are being towed on site by a tractor, six at a time.

For some, not being in a muddy field has been a blessing and they've been told they can stay there instead.

But showground bosses insist this is just a temporary measure and the vans have to be taken to Worthy Farm otherwise they'll be moved on.

The charity Gloucestershire Crimestoppers says it's only a matter of time before someone is injured, following a series of arson attacks in Lechlade.

Four serious fires have been started deliberately in buildings in the town since the start of May.

Yesterday, the charity offered a reward of up to £1,000 for information which leads to the arrest and charge of those responsible.

Gloucestershire Police said it want to reassure the public it is doing everything it can to trace the persons or persons responsible.

The music is just getting under way and festival-goers are ready to go!

A man has been charged with the murder of a woman believed to be his partner in Bristol. 

Vaclovas Liubavicius, 61, of Gadshill Road, is due to appear before city magistrates later. 

The 61-year-old woman was found at a property in the same street on Tuesday. 

She was taken to hospital but later died. 

The victim has not yet been formally named but it is understood she was in a relationship with the suspect. 

A post-mortem examination is due to be carried out.

There's a gap there. And there. And there.

It's like Google Maps for tent pitching spaces. Although we suspect these spots are going to go rather quickly this morning.

A new project is aiming to get more people noticing the historic alleyways in Tewkesbury. 

Project Alleycats wants people to take an interest in the alleys - so they can be better maintained. 

One of the plans to attract tourists is to install art work along the pathways.

Swindon Town's EFL Cup tie against QPR gives them an opportunity to "turn their fortunes", says head coach Luke Williams.

Championship side QPR will host League One Swindon at Loftus Road in August.

The Robins won 2-0 at QPR in round two in 2013-14, starting a run of seven wins in 11 games, and Williams knows a similar result could lift his squad.

"A game like that can turn your fortunes for you and give people that extra bit of belief and confidence," Williams told BBC Wiltshire.

People living near the former Frenchay hospital site in Bristol say they're concerned as many as 20 caravans have moved onto land near the village museum.

They say the group of travellers arrived at 11pm last night and moved large boulders to gain access to the site.

One villager who's spoken to the group says they're planning to leave in a few days.

Mud, mud, go away...

A Gloucestershire "supermum" has been talking about her experience of fostering and adopting children over the past 29 years. 

Sarah Naish from Dursley fostered three siblings in 1987 and ten years later adopted a further five youngsters. 

Those children are now grown up and Sarah's now a grandmother. 

Yesterday we brought the story about three friends from Weymouth who'd spent six hours travelling to the Glastonbury Festival.
