Legal action's been launched over claims Weston'S Grand Pier pavilion could have been saved from burning down three years ago.

The attraction's owners are suing two companies for failing to properly monitor an alarm that went off on July the twenty-eighth 2008, several hours before a 999 call was made.

System 2 Security Limited, of Locking Road in Weston, and Essex-based Yeoman Monitoring Services Limited are being sued for thirty-nine million pounds.
