The body Laureline Garcia-Bertaux was found in a shallow grave at the back of her home days after she failed to report to work following a coffee date.

London - The body of a missing film producer has been found in a shallow grave at the back of her home on an upmarket suburban street.

She helped produce films starring Dame Joan Collins and Sheridan Smith and hoped to become a director and screenwriter. She ran a lifestyle blog and had set up her own video production agency called Black Balloons Studios. ‘I’m pretty harrowed about it. I’ve been in that house, I’ve been in that garden. It’s creepy, it’s upset me quite a lot.’Mr Hughes, who worked with her at the Discovery Channel, said of the meeting with the unknown man: ‘She was meant to go shopping in Oxford Street on Sunday in the daytime. Then she was meant to meet a man for coffee on the Sunday evening.

He said he last saw Miss Garcia-Bertaux a month ago, but had spoken to her best friend, who reported her missing. Police were also last night speaking to the owners of her rented property at their seaside home in Eastbourne, East Sussex.
