HOLIDAY chaos hit sun-seekers heading for Brittany - and those returning home - following a terror blaze aboard the cross-Channel ferry Quiberon, on its way to the French port of Roscoff.
The ferry fire, in which one man died, resulted in sailings from Plymouth to Roscoff being cancelled for several days.
The disruption came in the middle of East Lancashire's holiday weeks.
