A man used £11,000 from his mum's inheritance to set up his own porno film business.

Trevor Small, aged 53, of Middlepark Avenue, Mottingham, spent the cash on video recorders and computers and began duplicating films he bought in Europe to sell here.

When the vice squad raided his home they found 735 seedy films.

Small told the court: "There is a conspiracy between the Crown Prosecution Service, the police, the Director of Public Prosecution, three major political parties and five national newspapers to sell pornography to under-age people."

The jury convicted him on two counts of having obscene articles for publication for gain. He also admitted six charges of possessing unclassified videos and one charge of possessing an unclassified video for supply.

He was given a 12-month conditional discharge.
