Two people have been killed following a fire on a cruise liner off Norway's coast.

The ship which is currently docked in Aalesund in Western Norway caught fire on Thursday morning.

200 passengers had to be evacuated - many at sea.

The fire started in the engine room of the MS Nordlys.

Large amounts of black smoke were seen coming from the ship and people close to the centre of the town were told to evacuate in case the smoke was toxic.

The vessel was on a round trip to Bergen.
