DETECTIVES are reviewing the death of a butcher whose body was found in a swimming pool at the home of the television entertainer Michael Barrymore.
Stuart Lubbock, 31, of Harlow, Essex, was found dead at Barrymore's home in Roydon, near Harlow, in March 2001 following a party.

Police held an inquiry, but no-one was charged in relation to the tragedy and an open verdict was recorded at an inquest, although Barrymore received a caution for drug offences.

A spokeswoman for Essex police said the review was "routine".

She said it was possible that police would interview Barrymore and other people at the party - but added that the review was at an early stage.

"We have begun a routine review of the inquiry and that is at a very early stage," she said.

"A team of officers will look at the file and everything that has happened since. It is possible that people will be interviewed again but no decisions have been made."
