The newsreader remained calm – if a little bemused – as he relayed what was happening to viewers during the programme on Wednesday night.

"These things happen and unfortunately it's happened tonight and we have very little choice. So I really apologise. We'll get back to you with the rest of the programme if we possibly can, but for now it's goodnight."

And with that, Bradby was off to no doubt stand at a fire assembly point in a draughty car park at the back of ITV's studios as a static 'We're sorry for the disruption' card was shown on screen.

And finally... Bradby didn't seem to, um, happy about the whole incident:
