Baby whale spotted in Thames after being freed from lock

The RNLI rescue team is attempting to catch a whale that was stranded in the River Thames for the second time.

The baby whale was first spotted on Sunday and was captured later that evening but managed to escape an inflatable cushion that was being used to guide it to safety.
