A P&O ferry has resumed its journey to Belgium after a fire in an engine room occurred just off the coast of Norfolk.

The ferry, which started its journey at Hull, has more than 600 passengers onboard. There are no reported injuries.

It is expected to dock at Zeebrugge this afternoon. Reuters reported that the fire was the second in the ship’s engine rooms in the past month.
