VS034 Emergency Landing at BGI

According to a thread on a.net it seems last nights VS34 ANU-LGW made an emergency landing at BGI.

No indication of reason although local papers are hinting at mechancial issues.

Currently she is grounded.

This is the info from Virginatlantic.com. Nothing much being mentioned, I imagine something will be going around the crew room when I rock up later.
