Weather causes ferry disruption
Sea Express One
Bad weather has forced the cancellations
High winds and heavy rain have disrupted ferry services to and from the Isle of Man.

The 0900 GMT ferry to Liverpool on Saturday was cancelled and more weekend timetable changes are expected due to bad weather.

The Liverpool passengers were transferred to the Heysham ferry and were taken to the city by coach.

The Liverpool to Douglas 1900 GMT service and the Douglas to Heysham ferry at 1945 GMT were also cancelled.

The Heysham passengers are booked on the 0845 GMT service on Sunday.
