A ferry carrying 183 people has caught fire in the English Channel - as lifeboats scramble to help those on board.
Emergency services sent three lifeboats out to the Irish Ferries ship as it made the 21-mile trip from Dover to Calais this evening.
The ferry is understood to have been carrying 183 people when the fire erupted - around 94 passengers and 89 crew.
