Police have revealed that two bodies have been recovered overnight from the burnt-out Shropshire home of a millionaire and his family.
Christopher Foster, 50, his wife Jillian, 49, and daughter Kirstie, 15, who lived at Osbaston House, near Maesbrook, are all missing.
The building was deliberately set alight early on Tuesday, police said.
The remains will be examined by a Home Office pathologist and post-mortem examinations will be carried out later.

Supt Gary Higgins said: "It is going to be a painstaking and lengthy process before the full examination of the house and its surrounds is completed.
"In the meantime, we will keep an open mind concerning what we may, or may not find."
Mr Higgins said it was not possible at this stage to give further details concerning the discovery.
The coroner for Shropshire has been informed.
Forensic teams were able to move into the main part of the house by mid-afternoon on Friday after access was delayed by falling debris.
