A global IT outage has caused massive disruption to various services today, including airports, banks, businesses and broadcasters. GP surgeries across England were also impacted, the NHS has confirmed.

Microsoft blamed a third party for the disruption and said it was working to restore services. According to IT security firm CrowdStrike, this is not a security incident or a cyber attack.

Watch Sky News's special programme Crash: The Global IT Outage live at 8pm on this all-encompassing issue, with the latest developments and analysis.

    Is it just me, but isn't 'Crowdstrike' the worst sounding name for a company? It just conjures up all the wrong vibes. Other examples of the names they pulled out of the hat may have been 'Kittensquash' 'Dogkick' 'Civiliansmash' before reluctantly settling with 'Crowdstrike'.
