A Nottinghamshire man has become so frustrated with drivers speeding down his road that he plans to suit up as Deadpool to stop them. Mark Spaven, 59, says motorists have been whizzing down Cavendish Drive in Carlton for years and his cat, Groot, was struck and killed by a suspected speeding driver two weeks ago.

Now, feeling as though his complaints to the council have fallen on deaf ears, the self-confessed Marvel aficionado plans to take to the street as comic book anti-hero Deadpool - but promises not to chop anybody's heads off. "I'm going to be going up and down dressed as Deadpool," said Mr Spave, who has a hand-made 'slow down please' sign.
