It comes after one of the men came forward and identified himself following the appeal to the media.

He also gave names of the three friends he was with on the night and whose images were also issued. Police will speak to the three other males in due course.

Police understand there was a brief interaction ending on friendly terms between Corrie and the group.

'As there was no further contact after this they are not considered to be significant to the investigation as was stated yesterday,' a police statement said.

A male and female identified in another image have come forward and identified themselves. The two people will also be spoken to in due course.

Corrie was reported as missing on the afternoon of Monday, September 26 after he failed to turn up for work at RAF Honington as planned.
