A big one!
A "disgusting" fatberg with the same weight as a small bungalow has been cleared from an east London sewer.
Thames Water engineers said it took two weeks and "brute force" to unclog the foul-smelling mass of fat, grease and "unflushable" items from a sewage path in Canary Wharf. The fatberg had got stuck under Yabsley Street and could have spilled sewage into homes, engineers added.
Canary Wharf residents have been urged to be "careful what they flush".
