The star of ITV's Vera has opened a new "crime scene flat" for forensics students at the University of Surrey. Brenda Blethyn cut police tape at the event, in a return to the town where she studied at the Guildford School of Acting. Crime drama Vera stars Ms Blethyn as DCI Stanhope, and has been running since 2011. The university launched its BSC criminology with forensic investigation course in September.

What a brilliant pic Shannon, thank you for sharing. Yes, Eric has a wonderful sense of humour. I hope his story gets shared far and wide. https://t.co/nvPgDboZ54
@MarkCarterMC @AdrianHarms I met Eric at a Royal British Legion event, he’s a delightful man who is quietly v funny. His mates back in the day had a great nickname for him. https://t.co/DUempKtjM7
Over the past few weeks, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Eric. He’s an incredible chap and so important that his story gets heard. @AdrianHarms did a brilliant job interviewing him and I had the pleasure of producing the special programme.
