After their holiday to Spain was cancelled, the Byrne family packed their bags, boarded a plane and took a dip in the pool - all from home.

Mum Stacey, a midwife at Barnsley Hosptial, said: "We had been making videos between the family, my mum, my sister and her family, sending videos on our WhatsApp group to keep ourselves entertained.

"Me and the children had been talking about our holiday in August and they asked what we would do if it was cancelled - so we said we'd just make one at home!"

Stacey, husband Dom and their four children, Lydia, 16, Austin, 11, Finley, 10 and one-year-old Jenson, used household items as props to create the video, including an Holy Communion tie and storage baskets.

Stacey said: We initally just sent it out to the family on the WhatsApp group but my nieces, Isla and Erin said we should post it on Facebook."

From going through Duty Free at the airport and watching air hostess Stacey carry out the safety briefing, to flying the plane, enjoying the flight and arriving at their hotel pool, it's definitely a holiday to remember.
