Orchestra hitting the high notes

Airline passengers have been treated to an impromptu fiddle concert at 30,000ft on a flight from China to the UK.

The Scottish Fiddle Orchestra staged the unplanned performance on a British Airways aircraft returning from Beijing.

Fifteen members of the 64-strong orchestra entertained customers and crew as they returned from a three-week tour of cities across China.
