The body recovered from the former Didcot power station site last week has been identified as Chris Huxtable.

Chris, aged 34 and from Swansea in south Wales, died when part of the boiler house at the building collapsed in February.

He was one of three individuals unaccounted for since the tragedy.

The search for the bodies of Ken Cresswell and John Shaw, both from Rotherham in the north of England, continues.

A fourth worker, Michael Collings of Teesside in the north east of England, also died in the tragedy.
