Scotland Yard said he was last seen at 9.30am when he was dropped off at Wood Green Station, north London. He was due to meet a friend at 3.30pm in Convent Garden, central London but never arrived. His fiancee Natasha was found dead in a bath of teh London flat they were sharing after taking cocaine and sleeping tablets. Mr Speight was initially arrested on suspicion off murder and supplying Class A drugs after her death on January 3rd. On January 9th police said they were no longer treating him as a murder suspect but he was bailed to return on the drugs matter. Mark is best known for the BBC's children show SMart.

I hope and pray that he does come home safe! It must be bad enough losing his fiancee but to be suspected of killing her and to lose his livelihood because of it and still have charges hanging over him , well who can say what state of mind any of us would be in! I know my kids , especially the younger one were when we had to explain that the programme had been axed! xxx

well if he up and vanished, he may think that they are suspecting him of the crime although they say he is no longer a suspect. Or he may have something else to hide, unless he returns people will never know. This is a scenario where there is more then one answer until he returns.

I was really shocked when I heard that he had killed himself but then he was at one point accused of murdering her!! Can you imagine how that would feel, trying to grieve for your loved one while police suspect you of foul play!! He will be truly missed, I love watching him when i was younger.
