Not a Trident puke myself but remember many years ago at the hold at Glasgow as a BA Trident came in. Reversers deployed on outboard engines at about 30 feet.
Asked my instructor (who was a Trident FO) what that was about. Stated that it was quite common to "get the bl**dy thing on the ground!".
So, yawn away BOAC!
