The former presenter, serving time for a string of sex offences, later offered to pay for the pond to be dredged so he could get the band back

Jailed broadcaster Stuart Hall threw his wedding ring into a prison pond in a fit of rage after a telephone row with his wife.
When he had calmed down, the shamed 83-year-old former It’s a Knockout presenter asked the Governor if he could pay to have the water dredged to retrieve it - but the request was turned down.
The revelations have been made by a former inmate of I wing at Wymott prison near Preston where Hall is serving a five-year sentence for a string of sex attacks on young girls.
