An elderly couple had a lucky escape on Friday when their car burst into flames in the English Lake District.

William Christopher Tyrrall, 81, and Brenda Tyrrall, 80, from Rochdale, Lancashire were visiting the popular tourist destination of Grasmere, when Christopher noticed smoke coming from the bonnet of the car.

He tried unsuccessfully to disconnect the battery and the vehicle burst into flames.

Two passersby helped to move the couple to safety.

The vehicle burned for ten minutes before firemen arrived and put out the blaze.
