"I did think that was strange." Melissa Caddick inquest examines husband's behaviour.

The behaviour of Melissa Caddick's husband was extremely strange around the time of her disappearance and when seen crying they weren't "real tears", a policeman has said at the inquest into Caddick's whereabouts.

Sergeant Trent Riley was one of the first police officers to interview Anthony Koletti following his missing person's report on November 13, some 30 hours after he said she left their Dover Heights mansion.

"I thought it was strange a husband would ring the police station, report his wife missing two days later and wasn't prepared to come to the police station," Sgt Riley said.

"Or didn't really want police to go around and see him (because) he had too much work on that day."

Sgt Riley's suspicions prompted him to visit the Sydney eastern suburbs home and his body-worn footage was played before the court on Wednesday.

"You can't be too careful these days," Mr Koletti is heard saying as he unlocks one of the many doors in the multi-million dollar home. Down in the couple's cellar Mr Koletti points out she "hasn't even taken any grog".

On the upstairs deck with the Harbour Bridge in the background Sgt Riley mentioned it was a good spot for New Year's Eve.

"I was looking forward to New Year's Eve, but I don't know now. It doesn't mean anything when you don't have the love of your life," Mr Koletti responds.

"Did you go anywhere last night?" Sgt Riley asks again.

"Not that I know of," Mr Koletti says.

Sgt Riley repeatedly says he doesn't believe the part-time hairdresser and DJ is telling him the whole truth.

"Like I said before I think there's something you're not telling me," Sgt Riley says.

"I told you if something comes up I will tell you ... I've been on this for a long time now," Mr Koletti responds.

Solicitor Judy Swan, on behalf of Mr Koletti, points out to the witness that at the end of the search and interview her client starts to cry.

"They weren't real tears in my opinion ... I'm very confident they weren't real tears," Sgt Riley said.

He noted Mr Koletti gave two different versions of the last time he had seen his wife and that she was "in good spirits".

The officer was then unaware that the Australian Federal Police and Australian Securities and Investments Commission had raided the couple's Dover Heights mansion on November 11, 2020.

Mr Koletti told police he wasn't worried about his wife, hadn't left home at all but later said he had spent the day scoping above the ocean near The Gap.

"(He says) he didn't think she was missing but he was checking the cliffs around Rodney Reserve all day," junior counsel assisting Louise Coleman said.

"Extremely strange," Sgt Riley responded.

Ms Coleman also asked him about the text message Mr Koletti sent to the cleaner from Ms Caddick's phone pretending to be her.

"I did think that was strange," he said.

"(He) contacted her closest friends but hadn't let them know she was missing?" Ms Coleman said.

"He did. Very strange," he said.

He was also bewildered why Mr Koletti described the clothes his wife was wearing when she left the house, despite not seeing her leave. Earlier Detective Sergeant Michael Kyneur recounted an interview he had with the husband while he was officer in charge of the investigation.

Mr Koletti offered up a theory she was staying at the Meriton in Bondi Junction.

"It was quite a big spot for us in our early years," he said.

"She could have a fat wad of cash stashed under the bed for all I know. She's resourceful."

In the UK, pro-republic sentiment is starting to come to the surface, amid the continuing mourning period for the Queen’s death.

This week, there have been scenes of peaceful protestors holding signs that read ‘Not My King’ and ‘Abolish the Monarchy’. The fresh new series of demonstrations across the UK have been met with swift action from police.

Civil liberty campaigners have since shared their concerns for the police response, suggesting it does not respect freedom of speech and expression. 

One of the protestors was even threatened with arrest. 

Barrister Paul Powlesland was threatened with arrest if he wrote “not my King” on a blank banner he held outside parliament yesterday.

Welcome to The Spill’s Emmy Awards special!

In this episode, we discuss the Emmy win that stopped viewers in their tracks and made us remember what this show is actually about, along with a controversial moment that probably should have been cut from the broadcast.

We also talk about what Lizzo’s win actually means, the renaissance of Jennifer Coolidge, and the Emmy categories that got it very very wrong.

You can read Chelsea's full recap of The Emmys as they unfolded here.

This story includes descriptions domestic violence that may be distressing to some readers.

A former Deakin University lecturer has pleaded guilty to the murder of his wife inside their Melbourne home.

Emergency services were called to reports of an assault at a Croydon North home about 10.15pm on April 30.

Chen Cheng, 35, was treated by paramedics, but she died at the scene. Her husband Adam Brown, 40, was arrested and charged with murder in May.

On Monday, he appeared by video link from prison in Melbourne Magistrates Court.

Magistrate Rohan Lawrence said he was satisfied there was enough evidence to commit Brown to stand trial in the Supreme Court and asked how he would plead to the murder charge.

"Guilty, Your Honour," he told the court.

He will next face the Supreme Court for a directions hearing on September 30.

Deakin University held a candlelight vigil to remember Cheng and all family violence victims after Brown was charged earlier this year.

King Charles and senior members of the royal family have gathered at Buckingham Palace to receive the Queen's coffin after tens of thousands of people lined the streets as it was driven through the British capital.

On a dark night of heavy rain, the well-lit hearse travelled slowly from a nearby airport through London, with crowds stood all along the way, some in the road, others throwing flowers and many ditching their cars to catch a glimpse of the cortege.

Princess Anne, the Queen's only daughter, travelled with the coffin as it was brought from Scotland where it has been since Elizabeth died last week.

"It has been an honour and a privilege to accompany her on her final journeys," Anne said in a statement. "Witnessing the love and respect shown by so many on these journeys has been both humbling and uplifting."

On Wednesday, the coffin will be taken on a gun carriage as part of a grand military procession to Westminster Hall, where a period of lying in state will begin until the funeral on Monday.

Meanwhile, Police Scotland has confirmed a 22-year-old man has been charged with breaching the peace after he allegedly heckled Prince Andrew at yesterday's Queen's funeral procession in Edinburgh.

Footage shared on social media shows the unnamed man shouting, "Andrew, you're a sick old man".

Another summer of heavy rainfall and humid, sticky nights is ahead for much of Australia as the Bureau of Meteorology declare a third consecutive La Nina weather event.

It comes after months of reports of a likely third appearance of the weather pattern, which leads to heavier-than-usual rainfall, and cooler temperatures across the north and east coasts.

La Nina conditions were blamed for devastating flooding in southeast Queensland and the NSW Northern Rivers this year.

"Models indicate this La Nina event may peak during the spring and return to neutral conditions early in 2023," the BOM said.

A #LaNiña event is underway in the Pacific Ocean. The Bureau's 3-month climate outlook shows a high chance of above-average rainfall for the eastern half of Australia. La Niña is not the only driver influencing this wet outlook. Learn more - https://t.co/Sxi7noGXVN pic.twitter.com/JJ7aYtxEEm

NSW State Emergency Service Commissioner Carlene York has urged people to prepare, saying a third La Nina presents unique challenges and risks.

"There is already wet soil, high rivers and full dams right across our state, and with more rain on the horizon comes the very real possibility of flooding,'' she said.

Recently, there were headlines telling us that on average, Aussies had around $40,000 in savings in the bank.

The response from many was a shocked one - 'who the hell has 40k in the bank?' Those who do, stayed suspiciously quiet.

In today's episode, The Quicky finds out just how true that headline is, and if you are one of those with 40k stashed away in your coffers, what you should be doing with all that cash.
