Who has Sky News on? What is this I see about hostages and the police swooping on a farmhouse with £53 million robbers holed inside with hostages?
Slightly over the top there Chico.
No hostages mentioned.
No robbers holed up inside mentioned.

"Police investigating the £53m security depot raid in Kent are searching farm buildings near Maidstone.
Officers have sealed off the area in Staplehurst, as they hunt for clues to Britain's biggest robbery.
Police have not confirmed whether a depot manager and his family, who were abducted by the robbers, had been held at the farm before the raid.
Four men in custody are also being questioned.
Authorities said they were benefiting from an "absolutely phenomenal" response to appeals for information and the investigation was moving at a "fast pace".
Five new arrests were made following several armed raids carried out at the weekend.
One of those arrested has been released on bail, but the other four are still being held.
Announcing the new arrests, Kent Police assistant chief constable Adrian Leppard said he was still very confident those responsible for the raid would be caught.
Police scour the farmland area
Armed officers reportedly shot out the wheels of a car and arrested two men on a seafront road near Whitstable on the north Kent coast.
Search teams have also visited a property in Southborough, near Tunbridge Wells.
Forensic teams are working on sites across Kent.
Police investigating the case are focusing on a group of martial arts fanatics, Sky News has learnt.
Detectives believe that with the investigation is moving at such a fast pace, the robbers are making mistakes.
Cash totalling £1.3m was found in a white Transit van in an Ashford car park on Friday.
Forensic tests are being carried out on the guns, balaclavas and flak jackets also found in the back of the van.
Police have also recovered a fork-lift truck.
The new arrests bring the total number made in connection with the inquiry to 11.
Police are continuing to ask the public for information, and have received more than 1,300 calls to two hotline numbers: 01622 652 361 or 01622 652 366."
