films is on fire in Wellington. A huge fire at Portsmouth Miniatures Studio
broke out at 3.10pm. A pall of smoke can be seen all over the eastern
suburbs, rising from the building, near Wellington Airport. 

The studio's manager said she was on her way to the scene. No-one was hurt,
she said. "And that's the main thing." Crews from all around the Wellington
region have gone to fight the blaze. Portsmouth Miniatures Studio has had a
hand in many Wellington films. Its facilities were used during the making of
Peter Jackson movies including King Kong and the Lord Of The Rings trilogy.
