The only thing I did wrong that night was have sex with Mairead over the snooker table

PAUL Mosley, who is accused with the Philpotts of killing their six children in a house fire, told police he had sex with Mairead just hours before the blaze.

And a court heard the father-of-two could not explain to police why there was petrol on his clothing after the fire.

Mosley, along with Mick and Mairead Philpott, denies the manslaughter of the six children in the blaze at their Allenton home.

In police interviews, he repeatedly told officers "no comment" when asked if he was involved.

And he replied "you tell me, duck" when asked why petrol was found on his clothes.

Nottingham Crown Court heard he told police the only thing he "did wrong" that night was have sex with Mairead "over the snooker table".

He also told officers: "I did not do anything, I had nothing to do with this."
