Jeanette Obertelli and David Barnatt outside Poole Magistrates Court.

A couple who spent six months shining a powerful torch into their neighbours' home in a row over a security light have been convicted of harassment.

David Barnatt, 70, and his 66-year-old partner Jeanette Obertelli took a dim view of Simon and Alison Morgan's new outdoor light that was active from dusk to dawn.

So they took to walking their dog past the Morgans' house late at night and deliberately aimed a torch through their windows on 70 occasions.
