Last updated at 14:55 GMT, Saturday, 28 November 2009

Two bodies have been found in a flat following a fire in Earlsfield, south-west London.

The bodies of an adult and child were discovered in the bedroom of a second-floor flat at Willow Tree Close.

They have not yet been identified and it is not clear whether they were male or female, London Fire Brigade said.

Emergency services were called to the flat at about 1925 GMT on Friday. It took 20 firefighters an hour to control the fire, which damaged half the flat.

The flat is on the second floor of a three-storey block, the fire brigade said.

Crews from Wandsworth, Tooting, Battersea and Wimbledon fire stations attended.

The cause of the fire is being investigated by fire officers and the police.
