The handheld fans have been out in full force across London today.

A Met Office red warning for extreme heat came into force this morning, with soaring temperatures felt right across the capital. TfL urged people to travel only if necessary.

And there may be little relief overnight, with temperatures staying above 20C, before another very hot day on Thursday.
