The video wasn't made by the BBC, but by Simon Lowe who is a professional 'videographer'. There's also another video of the same incident taken by some visitors to the viewing park. I agree that this is probably the greatest video of this kind. It's amazing to listen to ATC and the crew onboard handling the problem calmly and professionally  Cool
