Oops - someone did not really think that through at the design stage!

What a load of bollox reporting. I've just go back from my trapeze class and I can assure you that if aerialists were doing the work they'd be much more interested in whether they were pointing their toes and whether one pose looked batter than another. And the place would be full of glitter for months afterwards.
"High wire artists" don't do odd jobs like changing light bulbs and Cirque have got a fat little earner going in the entertainment business without branching out into building maintenance.
Maybe, just maybe, Heathrow have contracted a team who once did some work for Cirque but I even doubt that.
