Coffee drinkers at a London branch of Caffe Nero had a surprise guest join them for coffee earlier today, when fox snuck in through the door.

A video shows a scared-looking fox scampering around the chairs and tables at the cafe in BBC Broadcasting House on Regent Street, before being ushered back out of the door through which he came by a man with a briefcase.

Foxes have become an increasingly common sight in the capital in recent years, having become increasingly accustomed to living around humans, with Londoners often spotting the scavengers rifling through their bins, wandering the streets at night, and even on the tube.
