4:54Now PlayingThe family of a British couple detained in Iran have spoken to them for the first time in seven months.
Lindsay and Craig Foreman have been charged with espionage while they were on a motorcycling tour - they deny the allegations.
Their son, Joe Bennett, told Sky News "they seem to be pretty good mentally and they say they're being looked after as well as possible."
A spokesperson for the Iranian Embassy added: "The case of these two individuals is proceeding through its judicial and legal stages in accordance with the domestic laws and regulations of the Islamic Republic of Iran and after the completion of normal procedures, the judicial hearings related to the case will be held."
