Convicted murderer Stuart Horner has entered his 49th hour of protest on the roof of Strangeways prison in Manchester.
Horner made national headlines when he scaled the roof of the prison on Sunday afternoon wearing just a pair of blue and yellow pyjamas.
Last night the stand-off attracted support from Manchester locals, causing a commotion between onlookers outside the prison gates in which police were forced to intervene.
