Watch live as Bluebird K7 runs on Coniston Water in the Lake District for the first time since the tragic 1967 crash which killed its pilot Donald Campbell.
The jet-powered hydroplane has been restored over the past two decades and is now returning to the body of water it is most synonymous with.
Between 1955 and 1967 it set seven speed records for a vehicle on water, four of them on Coniston. Before its fatal crash, it had recorded a top speed of 276mph.
