A “controlled explosion” on a London film set sparked a fire that destroyed a van and damaged two other vehicles near the O2 arena.
The London Fire Brigade (LFB) said they had sent 25 firefighters and four fire engines to the scene, near Dock Road and Trinity Buoy Wharf in Silvertown, at 7.51pm on Saturday.
Images showed a burning red lorry with the words “BBC World News” emblazoned on its trailer. But BBC News has confirmed there was no BBC News involvement in the event.
