Boy’s lost camera washes up on tiny German island

A lost camera found on a tiny German island has been recognised as belonging to a young boy from East Yorkshire. 10-year-old William Etherton lost the device while filming him and his sister at Thornwick Bay in September.

The tide carried it 500 miles away but the camera was still working and the footage was shared on social media where a family friend spotted it.

William told 5 live he was β€œamazed that it had survived all the way to Germany.”
