Typhoon emergency landing Coningsby

I noticed a Typhoon squawking 7700 mid-UK a few days ago. Just went to look it up and the rumour on FR24 forums is that it had to make a fast landing into arrestor gear.
Any more info?
There was similar case in 2020 - video on Utube
One guesses flap or airbrake failures, or i supposed being what it is, computer failure meaning uncontrollable at low speed..?

Sounds more a hydraulics failure if an approach end cable engagement was required.
