No planes will fly to or from Heathrow Airport on Friday after the airport was shut due to a fire at a nearby substation.

As the airport is close, this exceptional situation allows TV helicopter to capture unseen situation.

Heathrow Airport will remain shut until midnight after a large fire at a nearby electricity substation, disrupting travel for tens of thousands of passengers.

Airports workers were seen doing inspection on the threshold of the runway 27R.

Counter-terror police are among agencies investigating the cause of the fire, which is expected to affect more than 1,300 flights today.
