A JOURNALIST and his camera operator have been detained in Tiananmen Square live on British television, in what he described as a surreal but telling episode about reporting in China.

He reported live from inside the van, admitting that the Chinese officials with him - one of them filming Stone herself - probably did not realise he was speaking directly to London.

The team were then taken into a room where they were told to await questioning.
