Teddy bear hunt begins as boy loses his most treasured possession
The family of a teenager who has learning difficulties are appealing for help to reunite him with his most treasured possession - his teddy bear.
Marcus Vaissiere mislaid his bear Bob in Andover town centre last month and he's lost without him.
Watch Richard Jones' reports below:
Marcus's teddy Bob has been his constant companion for more than ten years.
What he really wants is the return of the real Bob. He's been given a stand-in but it's just not the same.

Bob went missing after a trip to this fish and chip shop in the centre of Andover last month.

The family have appealed for public help to find Bob and are even offering a reward but so far without any success.
With Christmas fast approaching, Marcus has only one wish - not something new, but something old, his much loved teddy bear.
