Yes it's dead, DPD IT confirmed it was down as their services aren't running due to it but no status reports from google yet, weird

According to Google it's a power outage in the London DC. Power is now restored and they are bringing up the networking.

Yep, I'm pretty sure it was just b, we've got nothing running there now. Annoyingly one of our DBs failed to start after failover, so we're running around now.
