Yes. Both ATC instructions sound like standard calls to cancel the hold the aircraft are in and rather than finishing the hold circuit; to immediately turn right to fly towards the respective beacon and then leave the beacon on a particular heading or track.
That way the controller knows the aircraft will be manoeuvring within the safe hold area and will then leave the beacon, flying in a specified direction.
Chevron; 'CTA' means controlled airspace found in the vicinity of an airport. We don't normally refer to "the London CTA" though
