Lesley CoppinMonday 29 April 2002
On the 8th November last year fourteen people were arrested in Greece for spying. They were tried in Greece this week in the full expectation that all charges would be dropped and it would be accepted that they were merely pursuing their hobby of plane spotting.

Much to their surprise, 8 of them were found guilty of espionage and sentenced to three years in jail. 6 others were given suspended one year sentences for aiding and abetting espionage.
Lesley Coppin is one of them - she's not even interesting in plane spotting. Jenni asks her how she came to be on the trip.
