The Manxman's sailings between Douglas and Heysham have been cancelled

All ferry sailings between the Isle of Man and England have been cancelled until Wednesday morning due to gales.

The morning sailing of the Manxman to Heysham in Lancashire and its return to Douglas were scrapped, along with its evening and overnight return.

The cancellations follow a forecast that Storm Jocelyn is set to bring strong winds and heavy rain.

Ronaldsway Met Office said gusts of up to 60mph (97km/h) could hit the island later on Tuesday and overnight.

The latest ferry cancellations follow the resumption of sailings on Monday evening after two days of travel disruption due to severe gales over the Irish Sea.
