The trial of two men accused of plotting to murder and rob the Devon soul star Joss Stone will enter its final stages today.
The prosecution and defence will both give their closing speeches at Exeter Crown Court.
The prosecution allege that Junior Bradshaw and Kevin Liverpool, both from Manchester, were on their way to attack Miss Stone at her home in Ashill, when they were arrested driving a car near Cullompton.
Weapons, masks and gloves were found in the car.
Both men deny all the charges against them - Bradshaw has claimed he knew nothing of the plan, but Liverpool has chosen not to give evidence.
