This is the dramatic moment a section of cliff comes crashing down on a 'Broadchurch beach' where people had been sat just minutes before

The footage shows the 180 million year old rocks suddenly collapse on to the beach at West Bay, Dorset.

The rockfall happened without warning and it took just a few seconds for huge rocks and bolders to cover the beach.

The incident happened on Sunday evening when members of the public were still on the beach.

It is thought that because the tide was in at the time, visitors had left that part of the shore not long before.

The rockfall prompted a number of people to call 999 amid fears that members of the public might have been under it.
