Health Secretary Matt Hancock has defended the government's coronavirus testing regime as working well - despite some people being directed to test centres 100 miles away.

He said: "At the moment the system works well. Of course there are operational challenges from time to time but it works well.

"And we're finding a higher and higher proportion of people in the country who have coronavirus and getting them tests so they can be looked after."
