Five heart-shaped fireworks let off

The British Fireworks Championships in Plymouth was dedicated to the victims of last week’s tragic shooting in Keyham. 

Five heart-shaped fireworks were let off in the sky around 9pm - and thousands of people held up white lights. Plymouth City Council leader, Nick Kelly, said the city's annual event would "bring Plymouth together".

Plymouth City Council, who captured the photo, tweeted: "Beautiful moment at tonight’s British Fireworks Championships for those who lost their lives in Keyham last week. Thousands holding white lights!"
