A second British aid worker held by the Islamic State militant group has been named as Alan Henning.
He appeared at the end of a video released on Saturday in which fellow UK hostage David Haines was beheaded by IS.
In the footage, a masked militant threatened to kill Mr Henning if David Cameron continued to support the fight against the jihadist organisation.
Mr Haines' murder appeared to have been carried out by the same insurgent with a British accent who was responsible for the deaths of two American journalists held by the movement.
The Prime Minister has said Britain stands ready to take "whatever steps are necessary" to help an international push to destroy the "evil" group.
Mr Cameron hailed father-of-two Mr Haines as a "British hero" and vowed to "hunt down those responsible and bring them to justice no matter how long it takes".
In the video, the knife-wielding insurgent said Mr Haines had to "pay the price" for Mr Cameron's promise to arm Kurdish fighters.
He said: "Your evil alliance with America which continues to strike the Muslims of Iraq and most recently bombed the Haditha Dam will only accelerate your destruction.
"And playing the role of the obedient lapdog Cameron, will only drag you and your people into another bloody and unwinnable war."
Speaking from Downing Street, the Prime Minister ruled out sending ground troops to Iraq.
But left open the possibility of UK airstrikes - which is what former military chiefs and some MPs are urging him to.
