National Grid have determined that power was lost at 16.54 on Friday by two large generators being lost from the grid at the exact same time, one wind and one gas.
The wind generator was Hornsea 1, and the operator confirmed 'systems significantly reduced power'. No information on which gas plant it was.
Other generators did increase output in response to the losses but it wasn't enough to offset them, and as normal operation could not be restored, a backup protection system was triggered which disconnects selected demand across the UK.
