Three people were injured, one seriously, when a rogue firework exploded into their picnic during an open air classical music concert at Eton College, Berkshire.

Douglas Dick, 33, from Surbiton, Surrey, suffered 50 per cent burns to his face when the rocket struck him. Two other people suffered minor burns when the firework set fire to a blanket.
