On June 20, a power cut in West London played havok with the BBC's output. It didn't help that the BBC's back-up generator caught fire and Television Centre was evacuated. Therefore, the late night bulletin had to be presented from the BBC's Westminster studios. Quite an evening, as Michael Buerk says, as England were also in action at Euro 2000.
