All 19 people on board a helicopter which ditched in the North Sea have been safely rescued.

The incident happened in an area 32 miles south of Shetland, off Fair Isle. The alarm was raised at about 15:30.

CHC Helicopter said the Super Puma EC 225 had been heading to the West Phoenix drilling rig.
