Detonated bomb at Hammersmith Tube

[dizzydo]

Does anyone with the TV on have any more information please?

Nothing on BBC 24.

Where did you hear this?

Can't see anything on bbc or sky....

It's on BBC

oohlala

nothing on bbc news

Not a bomb necessarily from the sound of it. Properly a result of the increased threat status.

probably

Looks like a false alarm - phew

Lapin i love that you even pedanticate your own self.

some poor sod's just got to work and realised he's left his packed lunch behind

someone just came into work and told me. They had obviously been delayed because of it. Hopefully just a false alarm. Thanks everyone.

"pedanticate", Boco?

I hate the wording of these things on the news.
Such as the bbc earlier reporting that three controlled explosions had been carried out in a car in Glasgow.
They neglected to mention that actually they just blew the doors and boot open.
It makes it sound more dramatic than it is and is ll propaganda imo.
We don't need all this scremongering.

Yes. You pedanticate.
You are fond of pedantification
You're a pedantifier.

I think after Simpsons Day, I might change names to "pedantifier"

Yes, TheDevilwearsPrimark I totally agree with you. Sensationalism and very scary when you cant find out what's happened.

Lapin be ThePedantifier. You could be like Edward Woodward in The Equaliser. Go round in a long trenchcoat, righting grammatical wrongs, correcting poor spellings wherever it may occur

they closed the station just after I came through it but no mention of anything more dramatic than the usual security alert?

Boco, you are a JAYneeuss!

Just so no bugger nicks it in the meantime

Blimey, I used to live there and can only imagine the chaos caused by shutting two tube stations and the roads. It's bad enough when they are all working.

There was a lot of this sort of thing during the IRA bombing campaign, usually a false alarm. Hope it's the case here.
