00:00We don't know the cause of this fire. It's obviously an unprecedented event but I think
00:04what you're right to say is we will want to understand both the causes of this event
00:10and what lessons, if any, it can teach us. As I say the grid have never seen an event quite like
00:18this so it is very unprecedented but obviously this is a massive disruption for people at Heathrow
00:24and obviously with any kind of event like this we will want to learn the appropriate lessons.
00:29The priority at the moment obviously is to get the fire out and to restore power and then to
00:36obviously work with the airport in kind of unwinding the terrible
00:39disruption that has been caused to lots and lots of passengers.
