That's a A380 so I'm sure that is TECY

Timekeeping today is pretty woeful, most departures and two-thirds of arrivals are running late today. Given that there are 341 departures scheduled (out of LHR 678) then I imagine that there may be some more cancellations this evening before the clock runs out on the day. Here is the ATC report and it basically says there is a bit of regulation around London (in bold) and other problems elsewhere. There were some areas of high windspeed at 3,000 this morning but that's ebbing away now.
