Denver Barfield and Beth Thompson died when a motorbike crashed in Vietnam in May

BBC News

An inquest into Mr Barfield's death has heard he was a "passionate, bright young man who loved to travel".Ivan Cartwright told Leicester Coroner's Court: "On the balance of probabilities, I am able to find that for reasons that will never be precise, the motorcycle left the road so that the rider and pillion passenger were thrown off it, and each sustained injuries that were serious, and sadly fatal.

CCTV footage played at the inquest showed Mr Barfield and Miss Thompson obtaining a motorbike, which was likely for hire, from outside the hostel between 03:19 and 03:24 on the morning of 16 May.
