Watch fireworks display rendered invisible by fog

The return of a fireworks event after seven years ended up a damp squib when thick fog hid the display from view.

Manchester City Council arranged two firework shows at Platt Fields and Heaton Park to mark Bonfire Night.

BBC journalist Emma Vardy, who went to Platt Fields Park with her family said: "It was just dense cloud. The noise sounded great, but we didn't see a thing."

Freelance photographer Tanya Weekes also attended Platt Fields Park on Saturday and said the fog made looking at the fireworks "a bit scary".

"It was a strange feeling, just staring into the mist and fog [with] very loud music playing."

She added families took to arranging their own entertainment, forming a conga line to dance to the music in the absence of anything to watch.
