Perhaps finding the report on the Incident might provide a better insight into what actually happened.
https://assets.publishing.service.go...987_G-BISO.pdf I don't think there is a suggestion of a direct connection in the systems, more just general aircraft and hydraulic rig cleaning. But several other failures stated. Sounds like quite a ride and credit to the crew in their attempts to analyse the fault and keep level headed.
