Apparently a fault with water getting into the defrost part of the electrics and starting a fire, one fatality recorded so far, so it is a serious problem.

Thanks for the heads up.

 
It would appear that the fire in Neasden killing so many people, may have been caused by a Beko f/f, here is a link with details of which ones are on their recall list. Beko Fridge Freezer Recall

It seems that this has been an ongoing problem which the fire Brigade have insisted Beko investigatate after many other fires. It seems shocking that they have been so lax on this and more deaths and fires have occurred. The problem with the fridge freezers appears to be a fault causing water ingress to the defrost timer, creating a short circuit with the resulting tragedies. So if you have a beko f/f check out the site. Sympathies to all the victims of beko's incompetence.
