A new ice skating rink has a phone trapped permanently under the ice - after it was dropped by a workman before it froze.
The iPhone got accidentally stuck under 60,000 litres of water at Willen On Ice rink in Milton Keynes.
The worker was helping to build the temporary 800 sq m venue which will attract thousands of skaters over Christmas.

00:00Hi, so I'm Rob, the director of Ice Edge Group.
00:03This is Willem on Ice, or Milton Keynes,
00:05it's our new ice rink.
00:06When we were making this, one of the workers
00:08has gone onto the ice, placed his phone down,
00:11and unfortunately, he's forgotten about it.
00:13It was actually a phone he'd borrowed from his daughter.
00:15So overnight, we've froze the ice
00:17using fire hose from the edge,
00:18didn't spot the phone there.
00:20When we've come in in the morning,
00:21we've then discovered this.
00:24So after discovering the phone in the ice,
00:26the obvious thing to do would be to remove it.
00:28However, we've got team icicles coming in on Saturday,
00:31that's the GV Syncro team,
00:33and they need the whole rink to perform their routine.
00:36So if we were to go ahead and remove the phone,
00:38we're then looking at closing this area of ice
00:40for the next week.
