Anyone (else) see the meteor/fireball?

I was out with the scope last night, looking around Orion. I happened to look away from the eyepiece and saw a very obvious fireball streaking by, with various "outbursts" and a bit of a "pop" at the end. I think I must've missed the earlier part of the trail since I was at the eyepiece. It passed right through Orion, heading SE ish. There's a clip on the BBC news saying it was seen over Bath and souhtern England, I assume it was the same one I saw. Like a fool I omitted to note the time but it would have been roughly 9.45-10pm (I think). Anyone else out there see it?

I saw a bright flash to the left of orions belt on Saturday night,  not the meteor in question as I believe that was Sunday,  but it did finish off quite a productive Saturday in general nicely!
