This is why Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth was evacuated today

Workers and visitors exited Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth earlier this morning as part of a planned drill. 

The procedure was aimed at emulating a real evacuation, in the event of an incident. 

Yvonne Clay, senior marketing manager at Gunwharf Quays, said: '˜As part of our regular health and safety training, we conducted a planned evacuation this morning.

'˜This is now complete and the centre is open as usual.'
