R22 Occurrence at Biggin Hill

Apparently 10 days or so ago a R22 made a precautionary landing at Biggin Hill and after shutdown a crack was found in the blade pocket from the training edge forward to the spar, about one third of span out from the root. I've seen a photograph: quite horrifying!
Very surprising that there's been no indication or discussion of this incident here. Or have I missed it?
