An invasive hornet that kills honey bees has been spotted in Britain for the first time.

The Asian hornet was found near Tetbury, Gloucestershire and work is under way to find and destroy its nests.

Nicola Spence, from the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs, explained how finding the queen hornet was the only way to stop them spreading.
