A cruise ship, which finally set sail on Monday after months of delays, remains in Belfast Lough on Tuesday afternoon. Villa Vie Residences' Odyssey was scheduled to leave the city in May, but five months after arriving, the ship is yet to leave Northern Ireland waters after being beset with delays.

A luxury cruise ship is set to return to Belfast just hours after it finally set sail on its three-year trip around the world. The Villa Vie Odyssey was due to embark on its lengthy cruise from Northern Ireland on 30 May, but emergency repair works left the boat - and its passengers - stranded for four months while they waited for it to leave.
