The father of a man found dead in Michael Barrymore’s swimming pool nearly 20 years ago wants a coroner to oversee a new inquest.

Terry Lubbock, whose 31-year-old son Stuart was found in a swimming pool following a party at Mr Barrymore’s then-home in Roydon, Essex, England, on March 31 2001, thinks information must have emerged which justifies a fresh inquiry by a coroner.
