More sensationalism? BA plane makes emergency landing at Heathrow | Travel news | News | London Evening Standard (http://www.standard.co.uk/news/travelnews/ba-plane-makes-emergency-landing-at-heathrow-a2945326.html)

Sensationalism...given the mismatch between the A380 in the picture and 777 in the text...all it really needs is a few words from a Guardian reporter about plunging and narrowly avoiding the immigrant orphanage run by nuns...

Enough already.
Maybe wait and see what actually happened.

looks like an emergency to me trying to land with a pushback tug attached to it.

I do like the term 'technical issue, in this case its probable fine maybe a hydraulic problem given it needs to be towed but BA media comms used the term technical issue for the Las Vegas incident which is just a tad more than a technical issue with flames, huge billowing columns of smoke and a write off airframe.

Indeed. That was definitely a technical Issue. :p
