In February 2000, just a few weeks into the new Millennium, Stansted Airport found itself at the centre of the longest-ever hijack situation on British soil.

The Boeing 727 Ariana Airlines flight had more than 150 passengers on board, who were being held at gunpoint by nine Afghan hijackers.

25 years after the incident, some of those who were there have been recalling what happened.
