One of the people onboard a ferry which ran aground near Orkney has described the moment the vessel came into trouble. Gary Brown said crews yelled at passengers to hang on to railings as the ferry approached the shore.
RNLI crews went to the scene after the MV Pentalina issued a Mayday broadcast off Orkney on Saturday evening. Pentland Ferries said smoke was detected in the engine room before the vessel became grounded at the village of St Margaret's Hope.
Sixty passengers, including three children and an infant, were evacuated from the ferry, as well as some of the crew.
