Humberside firefighters at sea: 'It's like crawling into an oven'

Fires at sea are rare, but when they happen, they can be deadly, with one fire trainer explaining, "effectively, we're in a big metal box."

Following a blaze in the cargo hold of a ship at Albert Dock in Hull, crews are continuing to train for one of the most dangerous jobs in the service.

BBC News was invited to Immingham to see how Humberside Fire and Rescue prepare for fires on board vessels.

On 27 June, crews were called to Albert Dock in Hull after a blaze broke out in a cargo hold packed with scrap metal leaving a thick plume of smoke drifting for miles over the city.

Just months earlier, in March, a man went missing, presumed dead after two ships collided in the North Sea off the coast near Withernsea.

A reminder of how serious maritime incidents in the region can be.

The risk is a real one and in Immingham, firefighters are put through intense, ship-based training to make sure they're ready.
