Jessica Lawson: Video released of 'delightful' schoolgirl

The family of Jessica Lawson, who died on a school trip to France, have released a video of her dancing which they say shows her "true self".

In the film, 12-year-old Jessica can be seen dancing to her favourite track by 5 Seconds of Summer while her dog Gracie chases her socks.

Jessica, a pupil at Wolfreton School in Hull, fell into a lake near Meymac in the Massif Central region on Tuesday.

Her family told the BBC they wanted as many people as possible to "see and enjoy the sheer delight that is Jessica Lawson."
