The last remaining British survivor of the Great Escape team has died aged 93.

Flight Lieutenant Ken Rees spent much of World War Two as a prisoner, and was part of the legendary escape from Stalag Luft III camp.

He was the last man pulled from the tunnel during the escape when it was discovered by a guard.

Mr Rees had been credited as the inspiration for Steve McQueen's character in the film of the escape, although he always denied this.
