Hundreds of passengers have had to be evacuated from a broken-down train in the Channel Tunnel in an incident which has led to long delays for travellers.

The 06:20 BST train from Folkestone, carrying 382 people, stopped about a quarter of the way to France.

Passengers were evacuated and taken on to the French terminal.
