Aerial pictures show an almost deserted central London

Aerial pictures of London on Tuesday show a largely deserted city, as the government continues to announce measures to try and help prevent the spread of coronavirus.

The footage shot by a drone reveal famous landmarks such as Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and Covent Garden with few people on the streets.

Staff are being urged to work from home where possible and public transport is running well below capacity.
