According to Darren Foxcroft, an employee at Presley's nightclub, the fire started at about 18h50.
"I was busy counting stock, and if no one came to me and told me the place was on fire, I wouldn't even have known the place was falling apart.
"From the moment we realised that the place [the club] was on fire to the moment it was on the ground was not more than 10 minutes."
