Channel Tunnel closed and services hit after lorry fire

Or to paraphrase an old (possibly apocryphal*) newspaper headline from Britain's more jingoistic days, "Continent cut off due to lorry fire".

* Wikipedia claims that it is apocryphal, but "Heavy Fog In Channel. Continent Cut Off" can still be found quoted on the internet, attributed to the Times on 22nd October 1957.
