Iran's official Arabic-language TV channel Al-Alam says it will broadcast footage of a confession by one of the 15 detained British sailors.

Reports suggest Iran is willing to reconsider releasing the captured British female sailor Faye Turney.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan says he had a discussion with Iran leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Iran's President is understood to have said he was "willing to reconsider the issue of the release of the woman crew member".

Sky sources have revealed the details of a letter sent by Iran's foreign ministry to the British Embassy in Tehran as the crisis over the captive British navy personnel deepens.

The Iranians do not ask for a formal apology, but call for the establishment of a technical forum to ensure British forces do not enter their territorial waters again.

A Foreign Office spokesman revealed: "We can confirm that, as reported in the Iranian media, the Iranian government has sent a formal note to the British Embassy."

But the statement has fallen far short of the strong condemnation Britain had wanted.

The eight Royal Navy sailors and seven Royal Marines were seized a week ago today after claims they strayed into Iranian waters.

The UK denies claims the ship strayed into Iranian waters and is continuing to demand that the captives be freed immediately.

Meanwhile two more of the captured Royal Navy personnel have been named by the Sun newspaper.

It says Marines Adam Sperry, 22, and Joe Tindell, 21, are being held along with 13 other British soldiers and sailors.

Marine Sperry's widowed mum Sandra, told The Sun: "I'm very proud of my son, but I just want him to come back home. Please let him go."

Yesterday the Foreign Secretary criticised Iran for releasing a letter purportedly from captive British sailor Faye Turney calling for the UK to withdraw its forces from Iraq.

Margaret Beckett said: "We have not seen this letter but we have grave concerns about the circumstances in which it was prepared and issued."
