Firefighters went to the rescue of a pregnant woman when she became trapped in an office lift.

The mum-to-be was stuck in the broken lift for more than 15 minutes before she was released.

The incident happened at TGB Learning, based in Portal House, South Way, Colchester.

Firefighter Dan Saunders said: "We put the key in the lock and undid the door it was as simple as that."
