Ian Watkins has been jailed for 35 years.

The former front-man of the Lostprophets has been found guilty of a string of sex offences, including the attempted rape of a baby.

The singer was told his actions were 'sickening and incomprehensible'.

A judge at Cardiff Crown Court says Watkins' actions 'plumbed new depths of depravity'.

Two women who allowed the singer to abuse their children have been jailed for 14 and 17 years respectively.

Meanwhile, two further forces are being investigated by the police watchdog over their handling of the Ian Watkins case.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission is already investigating the South Wales force over whether it acted quickly enough on tip-offs.

It'll also look into the South Yorkshire and Bedfordshire forces.
