A Briton accused of hacking into top secret military computers has lost a Law Lords appeal against being extradited to stand trial in the US.

Glasgow-born Gary McKinnon could face life in jail if convicted of accessing 97 US military and Nasa computers.

He talked to Huw Edwards on BBC News two years ago after announcing he would fight extradition efforts.

First broadcast in July 2006
