Go-arounds at EGLL

[steve1969]

Heathrow ATCOs,

I was wondering roughly how many go-arounds you can expect to see during an average week at EGLL?

And, what are the most frequent reasons for them?

I'd appreciate your thoughts.

Around one or maybe two per day. Top reason is that the runway is still occupied by the previous landing aircraft. However there are also many other reasons of course.
