concord go- around?

Does anyone know if concord made a go around yeaterday evening at LHR ( 24/9)? It flies over us every evening, but last night it flew over twice. Just ondered if there were 2 in operation and landed within minutes of each other, or it made a go around?

Thanx ID90. Thought it was strange to have 2 concord flying in succession!

LHR was a bit clogged up as at one stage they had no runwasy operational for a short time.

The 002 called into "company" and they spoke to ATC to give them a little help as the hold was right on the limit of the fuel reserves that they have for Holding before they would have had to make a decision to divert to Gatwick.

That flight incidentally was, as I understand it, Capt Richard Owen's last flight as he has hit 55.
