I agree this is probably because of the new focus on what happened the previous evening .
What really caught my attention is how similar the man captured in this clip (here) is to the one in the clip release in 2009 (here) showing a man walking the same route the following morning. Although the quality is fairly poor you can see he is similar in height, build and in the way he walks even the clothes he is wearing look similar.
The man in the original clip was identified almost certainly as one Richard Cartwright who owned two properties in Heworth Place which he was renovating so he could let them out. His presence was later explained by him checking on the security of the properties. Cartwright died suddenly just three weeks later (reportedly of a heart attack). When his name came into the investigation his main residence (round the corner in East Parade) was searched and some samples from the PM were sent for toxicology tests. However it appeared the police lost interest in him fairly quickly and it seems he was effectively eliminated from the enquiry (although they never said why).
Because of this and other coincidences I have always seen him as a person of interest in the case, especially since the new concentration on the alleyway that ran to the back of his properties.
Having said that it would not be surprising he would be seen collecting something from one of his properties the evening before. The only odd thing is the way the man stops dead when he sees the other man passing maybe he was in the habit of keeping his distance from other pedestrians.
I've lost the plot on this thread, there is so much on it and only so much time to read, however I think the information in this post holds something really significant. I too was struck by the similarity of the dark clad figures in the two clips. A lot of more recent posts refer (I think) to potentially more than one property, and an empty property (RC's??). We know that RC can't be the recently arrested person, but that doesn't rule him out as having been involved, or knowing something.
