The Proms website explains that there has been a loss of electrical power as a result of the fire. The prom was due to be televised on BBC Four and broadcast on Radio 3. Radio 3's website states that they are playing the scheduled programme but with alternative recordings, and BBC Four appears to be broadcasting a previous Prom.

Bit of a shame really, as it mucks up the 73 Prom programme, and at this late stage in the season they can't really re-schedule it... lets hope they get things sorted before Saturday's Last Night.

Apparently they said on the radio that they would be in serious financial trouble if they still hadn't sorted it out by Wednesday.

Still, it could have been a lot worse.
