Diners had to be evacuated from a restaurant at lunchtime due to an overheating transformer.

Frankie and Benny’s in Crest Road, High Wycombe, had to be cleared out over safety concerns about the restaurant’s transformer units getting too hot.

Three fire crews – two from High Wycombe and another from Marlow – were called to the scene.

The restaurant did not suffer any fire or smoke damage during the incident, which was reported to the emergency services at 12.44pm.
