It's a different story when you're tasked to maintain the pace of a mission. This documentary is a gem for emergency operations.

A really nicely done film with incredible educational value. Even more so today (the internet/YT era) than back then. I've watched it while washing the dishes and learned a whole lot, without having to go through dozens of pages from the actual written report. Keep them videos coming, I'll be binge watching anytime a time slot opens!

A very good documentary, thank you John for sharing the film and like to thanks these emergency services to share their information to us, very good of them to do so. And this info should used again for the future if anything like Windsor Castle, (Grief forbid it won't) should happen again.

Hi, This was at the very start of my service with RBFRS it was a very exciting incident for a new firefighter and i remember very clearly seeing the queen looking through her destroyed home. I was the one that discovered the cause of the fire, what a great start to a firefighters career

My team was tasked with identifying the cause, we were digging through the rubble and ash and found the halogen light that set fire to the curtain. I do have a photo of that moment. We were there for days on fire watch duties and putting out hot spots.

I've read a lot of documents - including official ones - regarding this fire. This was a very well organized and coordinated attack on this fire. The men on the ground did as well as they could given the complex structure. Frankly, some US fire departments could learn from the excellent coordination of efforts. The decision to create fire breaks and the division of duties across 4 sectors was key. The only flaw I can point out is the length of time between Windsor Castle Fire Brigade being alerted to the fire and the first call for outside assistance - a full 21 minutes. I would hope that procedures have been altered so that if another fire were to break out, Reading station would be alerted to respond immediately and other stations put on a stand-by status.

Arx Fortis agreed. It should have been protocol to call the fire brigade in the first instance.

Completely normal. Usually in a fire of unknown size like this one. The first local unit responds. Then when the situation is assessed. Then a request for assistance is made.

6:12 Wonder if there’s any isolated footage of these responses. I’m assuming the full amateur video was yoinked by the media and the fire service and never digitised? Footage holds up pretty well for the fire engine geeks. EDIT: Okay, might not be as amateur as I thought…

These web-related disasters are the result of getting faster service before power and infrastructural lines are readied. Upgrading speeds taxes electrical line capacity, including in facilities without web service.
