A TV presenter's on-air confession that he killed his ailing lover is to be investigated by Nottinghamshire Police.

Ray Gosling, 70, told the BBC's Inside Out programme he had smothered the unnamed man who was dying of Aids.

Personally I put it down to attention seeking. Heard him all over the BBC "Today" prog this morning ~ bloody drama queen!


There are things that one does in life that one should keep quiet about. To my mind this is one of them. We all know it happens, we all hope that when our time draws near a kindly doctor will up the morphine dose. Big mouthed people like Mr Gosling, who will no doubt claim to be helping the euthanasia cause, only serve to make doctors even more reluctant to "help".

I heard him on the wireless earlier too - if ever there was a man 'that didn't sound right' this is him...  noooo:

He claims not to have an agenda - why mention it at all then...?

Oooh ooh and me sir, please sir I want attention too. I heard this clip in the car today, not that one< rather ^ that one unless I am missing something this was not an assisted death rather out and out murder.  It may well have been committed on compasionate grounds and in all honesty my sister and I when my father became very ill talked about it.  Goslings lover did not assist in his own death.

TV presenter Ray Gosling has been arrested on suspicion of murder by Nottinghamshire Police after he admitted killing his lover.

The 70-year-old's confession that he had smothered the unnamed man who was dying of Aids was broadcast on the BBC's Inside Out programme on Monday.

The Nottingham filmmaker said he had made a pact with his lover to act if his suffering increased.

Police are questioning the presenter over his claims.
