Joanna Yeates murder timeline - Telegraph.co.uk

8.40pm: At a Tesco Express on Regent Street in Clifton Village - about a quarter-of-a-mile from her flat - Miss Yeates bought a pizza, which is missing. She then visits a nearby off-license to pick up a bottle of cider.

Police believe she returned home to her flat in Canynge Road, which she shared with Mr Reardon. A receipt from Tesco was found in the flat, along with a cream-coloured coat she had been wearing and her mobile phone and keys.

Appealing directly to their daughter, they said: ''Jo, whatever the reason that you have not been in touch over the last few days, we want you to know that we love you dearly and are desperate to know that you are safe and well.

''Please get in touch as soon as possible. Either to the police or anyone who can confirm you are okay.''

Mr Reardon spoke of his distress at the disappearance of his girlfriend.

''I desperately want her back - I thought we would be together forever,'' he said from Miss Yeates' parents' home in Ampfield, Hampshire.

''She was my future. This Christmas was going to be our first together. I was going to spend it with her family, which is always a big deal for a boyfriend.

''We were both really happy in our jobs - we worked together and that's how we met.''

Specialist officers have been searching the couple's flat, as well as the snowy Bristol Downs and Avon Gorge.

They have also taken a phone and laptop computer from Mr Reardon as part of the inquiry.

Miss Yeates' parents make a second tearful appeal and reveal their fears that their daughter has been abducted.

Mr Yeates begged her potential kidnapper: ''If she's dead, please tell somebody where she is.

''I think she was abducted after getting home to her flat. I have no idea of the circumstances of the abduction because of what was left behind.

''I feel sure she would not have gone out by herself leaving all these things behind and she was taken away somewhere.''

Detectives said that when Miss Yeates was in the Tesco Express she had bought a Tesco Finest tomato, mozzarella and basil pesto pizza. However, there was no trace of the pizza, the wrapping or the box in her flat.

''Nobody else has been reported missing and it's the body of a young girl close to where Jo disappeared. It hasn't been a Christmas for us. I don't know what it's been. It's been surreal, totally unreal. We're just waiting now for the police to tell us what we suspect.''
