A British vandal who scrawled on the walls of the 2,000-year-old Colosseum in Rome has begged Italy for forgiveness.
Ivan Dimitrov, 27, who lives in Bristol with his girlfriend Hayley Bracey, 33, scribbled both of their names into the ancient stone - but were caught in the act by a furious tourist.
The pair were spending time in the Italian capital during a three-week trip across Europe.
