Ro-ro freight ferry MV Arrow has been brought back into service after fog disrupted weekend passenger services, the Isle of Man Steam Packet has said.

The move is designed to free up space on the Ben-my-Chree to get passengers "where they need to be" before Christmas, a company spokesman said.

Fog at Heysham port meant sailings on Saturday and Sunday were unable to dock and had to return to Douglas Harbour.

But some passengers have been criticised for verbally abusing staff.

BBC News has more including a comment from the M.D. of the Steam Packet.
