"Not again?"

3 tube station closed because of "incidents"
Anybody know what's going on, or is it just precaution?

Armed police in UCL Hosptial.
Oh please oh please let one of these idiots be caught red-handed (literally).
And no, Cong Man, it's not funny at all. You fool.

**edit**
Why post exactly the same thing in chat?

Ah, Sky News, the vulture news channel. Yip, Skycopter and everything. Retards.

You getting a sense of Deja-Vu 'fix?

I am...

Or possibly "Oh no my bomb wasn't wired properly".

This made me laugh, even though it really shouldn't...

Victoria Line train passenger Ivan McCracken told Sky News he spoke to an Italian man who witnessed an explosion just after the train arrived at the platform.

"He told me he had seen a man carrying a rucksack which suddenly exploded. It was a minor explosion but enough to blow open his rucksack. Everyone rushed from the carriage. People evacuated very quickly. There was no panic.

"I didn't see anyone injured but there was shock and fright.

"There was a smell of smoke."

"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed



"Oh no! My rucksack has exploded!"

All tubes shut as precaution - best decision to take I think.
Appears nobody injured, police not treating it as major incident as yet but are understandably skittish as this falls 2 weeks after the last.

The news, especially Sky, are throwing eyewitness after eyewitness after terrorist expert into the mix and breathlessly reporting with "Dangercam!!" helicopter stuff.
I'm not listening to people on phones relating their experiences, it only leads to rumours and crap.
It does look like only detonators went off instead of a main device (or they were rubbish scare-only attempts), for which we should be thankful.
Looks to be calming down, and Sheepy's right - the headlines came up and normal programmes interrupted and I thought "Oh for fu...not again".

Doesn't appear to be serious thankfully

Travel bird on BBC just said avoid central london.

Oh and Colourless, there is some disruption to the train services, but these incidents are not being treated as seriously as those of 2 weeks ago.

Apparently it was a nail bomb on the underground and another bus explosion.

Someone said they saw a bag explode.

EDIT: Reports of gunshots on one station platform too.

Nobody is injured apparently.

Your heart stops a bit when you see the headlines again though.
