The stranded couple are saved in the nick of time after being cut off by the tide.

This is the heart-stopping moment two walkers were saved from drowning after being cut off by the tide.

Dramatic video footage from a coastguard helicopter shows the strong waves of the incoming tide licking at the feet of the young couple.

They were rescued in the nick of time by a coastguard winchman who plucked them off the beach at Charmouth, Dorset.
