Visitors to a fairground on a popular British seaside resort have found themselves stuck upside down.
Police rushed to Skegness Pleasure Beach in Lincolnshire in a bid to rescue the 25 people stuck on the malfunctioning ride.

One boy, who has now been helped off the ride, said he was on the ride for nearly two hours.
