Border controls on 'The Bridge' between Sweden and Denmark

The Oresund Bridge is the crossing from Sweden to Denmark made famous by the TV crime drama The Bridge, but it is no longer open for business as usual.

The two countries controversially introduced border controls there this week to try to reduce the number of asylum applications.

Emergency talks will be held on Wednesday after Germany warned the checks could jeopardise Europe's principles of free movement.
