A fleet of colourful hot air balloons has set off across the English Channel in a bid to set a new world record.
Around 100 balloons are thought to be taking part in the attempt, which aims to become the largest group crossing of hot air balloons between England and France.
The skies above Dover filled with the majestic, brightly-coloured balloons shortly after 6.10am, when the fleet began its voyage across one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes.
The crossing made the vision conjured by that 1980s song 99 Red Balloons by Nena pale into bland banality as more than 100 balloons took to the sky in a riot of colours.
