Nessie was first photographed in 1934

The 30ft model is thought to have sunk after the shooting of The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes, directed by Hollywood legend Billy Wilder.

It was found on the loch bed during the latest survey of the 755ft deep Highland loch.

The loch is currently being surveyed for signs of the elusive monster but bookmakers do not believe Nessie will be found and have placed odds of 10,000/1 that she will be discovered alive.

Jessica Bridge of Ladbrokes said: "Nessie's getting old now and the odds suggest the search party should probably call it a day."
