    Went there for the last Clockwork Orange House night gig a few months back. Hope it's not completely gutted as liked that place.

    They've just spent an absolute fortune building a brand new terrace there. Some really good events in there for people who like their house music.

    Now we know where to find Katrien

    Does anyone ever go?? I have gone past at lunchtime and queues out the door, some Ibiza rave or something.

    As a morning person, I'm quite intrigued that there are dance parties still going on at midday.

    Seriously though, hope everyone is alright. The notion that it's near a gas works is quite disturbing.

    The gas tank is completely down, so hopefully would be ok. In fact, they all seem to have been for a couple of years now. I guess the energy companies are working on some sort of just-in-time principles these days. Anyone know?

    I live 5 mins walk away and couldn't believe my eyes when I walked outside and saw the smoke earlier!

    From the outside it really doesn't look like much of a club at all, as its in quite an odd location. Proper tardis though - absolutely huge inside.

    Me neither, whenever I went past I imagined something more like this. But perhaps not so classy.

    Are we sure ValleyGary's pics aren't just mock-ups of what they are claiming to have had for insurance purposes?

    Just read google reviews. I suggest some don't.

    Good club, was in there for new years... Good setup and anywhere where Patrick Topping starts a set at 9am is good in my book

    Absolute nightmare, was meant to be going to Elrow there in september.

    Obviously it's sad for the owners and I hope no one was hurt, but I was really looking forward to getting off my chops.

    Jesus... Well that's definitely some potential motive.

    Looking at the NewsShopper article too, 14 people getting nicked for Arson within a few hours is pretty nuts.. 14?!

    After 30 years service in the London fire brigade, I've been retired just over 2 years
    I just hope everyone is safe and sound

    It's at the shady looking nightclub on the Blackwall Tunnel approach - Studio 338

    Used to stop off there for a beer after playing on Hackney Marshes back in the day.

    Marina S certainly sounds like she had some motive based on those Google reviews. Jesus!

    Feckin hell. How many times can you burn the Tunnel club down?

    Saw that heading up the A2 by the first Gravesend turn off!
