and live on Freeview channel 276
Crews from Blackpool, South Shore and Bispham were called out at 10.22pm to tackle the fire, which took nearly two hours to extinguish.
Firefighters had to use special 'breaking-in tools' to gain access to the burning building, before using breathing apparatus, hose reels and a positive pressure ventilation fan to bring it under control.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
A spokesman for the fire service said: "It is a commercial building that caught fire, but I don’t have any further information than that. The fire is still under investigation."
