Looking for some help if possible. I saw a short powerfull video earlier today about a house fire in which children were involved. The guy who showed the video said it was filmed by a TV crew who were working with the fire brigade and looking at the vehicles involved appears to be 1980s. The video has a soundtrack by Enya or someone similar and lasts for about 3-4 minutes. I was just after a bit of background to the incident and what was the outcome? Thanks in anticipation. Howard

The video I think you are on about was with a retained - crew from Hull. Whilst the film crew were filming, the crew got a shout of a house fire with persons reported. It is a very graphic but true account of how quickly a house fire can claim life's - I would like to point out that this was pre smoke alarms days, before brigades starting doing HFSV. But the crew did a excellent job in responding and rescuing the family in minutes, but tragically the children were killed.
