British teenager Alex Batty has revealed he lied about the details of his escape to protect his mother and grandfather from police.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun, he said he fabricated a story about a four-day journey, hoping it would stop officers from tracking them down.
"I've been lying to try and protect my mum and grandad but I realise that they're probably gonna get caught anyway," Alex said.
"I didn't get lost. I knew exactly where I was going," he added, describing his journey as a two-day hike, first to the town of Quillan to pretend to ask for directions, then on towards Toulouse.
TalkTV's Kevin O'Sullivan and Daisy McAndrew are joined by psychotherapist Gillie Jenkinson to discuss Alex Batty's escape and the influence of cults on young people.
