Thieves have stolen over $200,000 worth of props from the set of Netflix series "The Crown" while the production was shooting nearby, Variety has reported.

Over 350 items were taken during the heist, including a replica Fabergé egg, a grandfather clock clockface, a dressing table, crystal glassware and silver and gold candelabras.

Kerry Needham, the mother of a British toddler who disappeared in 1991 on Kos, says that villagers on the Greek island know what happened to her missing son.

"We know for a fact that there are people on Kos that know what happened to Ben that day," Needham said in a recent interview with Britain's Mirror newspaper.

A UK police team probing the more than two-decade old disappearance of a British toddler on the Greek island of Kos said Monday the boy was likely killed in an accident.

However, investigators have not found the body of Ben Needham - who was 21 months old when he vanished near a farmhouse where his family was staying in July 1991 - and they said the investigation is continuing.

British police on Monday wrapped up a renewed investigation into the disappearance of toddler Ben Needham on the island of Kos in 1991, saying the boy probably died in an accident involving a digging machine.

Detective Inspector John Cousins, from South Yorkshire Police, told reporters that it was his "professional belief" that the boy died in a digger accident.

The family of missing toddler Ben Needham say they are “eternally grateful” for the volunteers who have been helping with the police search. A team of 19 South Yorkshire Police officers, forensic specialists and an archaeologist are excavating farmland near to where he was last seen playing. Members of the Hellenic Rescue Team and Red Cross are assisting.

Ancient graves have been unearthed on the Greek Aegean island of Kos in a new search for a British toddler who went missing over two decades ago, police said Friday.

"We have actually found some archaeological remains, weve got four graves which date back at least 1,500 to nearly 2,000 years ago," Detective Inspector Jon Cousins said in a video released by the South Yorkshire Police.

Members of the South Yorkshire Police and a Greek search team are seen Thursday on the site of an excavation on Kos launched as part of a renewed investigation into the disappearance of Ben Needham, a 21-month-old British toddler who went missing in 1991 on the island while on holiday with his family.

Police searching for missing toddler Ben Needham on the island of Kos say they have uncovered items of “slight interest”, following an initial excavation of a site close to where he was last seen. The items found are said to have been fabric and bones believed to belong to a dog or other animal.

Police on Monday began excavation work on the island of Kos in the Dodecanese on Monday in the search for Ben Needham, a British toddler who went missing in 1991.

A new line of inquiry by the South Yorkshire Police suggests the 21-month-old may have died near a farmhouse his grandparents were renovating in July 1991.

According to reports, the mother of missing toddler Ben Needham says she has been told by British investigators that her son may have been crushed to death by a digger, in the Greek island of Kos.
South Yorkshire police confirmed its officers planned to return to the Greek Island of Kos, where the 21-month-old went missing in 1991, to excavate two sites after fresh leads.
