Summary
Police investigating the disappearance of Nicola Bulley have issued a dispersal order around St Michael's on Wyre after reports of amateur investigators travelling to the Lancashire village. <br /><br />Her family has said the influx of people trying to help the investigation is hindering police efforts. <br /><br />On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by Sky correspondent Katerina Vittozzi who has spoken to armchair sleuths who've descended on the village. Niall also talks to Martyn Underhill, one of the detectives involved in the search for schoolgirl Sarah Payne in 2000 about how police manage the public desire to help in high-profile cases. Plus, criminal psychologist Amanda Vicary on why some people want to become amateur detectives. <br /><br />Producer: Rosie Gillott <br />Interviews producer: Alex Edden <br />Podcast promotions producer: David Chipakupaku <br />Editors: Philly Beaumont
