AP are reporting that men in Chemical protection suits have entered Warren Street Station. This provides a useful illustration:

Sky revealed it first, placed it on the strap.

BBC have only just shared it, (via presenter) but were then able to bring in a reporter to put the report in context (suits don't mean anything, to be expected, happened last time even though they were no chemicals...)

Perfect illustration that first doesn't mean best, even if they are factually correct.

Does make you think if any terrorist groups will claim any responsibility for this, seeing as it was so badly carried out.

And also, good old Sky News Rolling Eyes :
'"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed.'

Yes, apparantly one of them was heard to shout and curse, one theory for this being "that he could be in a lot of trouble". What would we do without broadcasters to tell us this stuff?
