Anyone know what was happening on the Central line today?

Apparently there was a broken down train at Bank, which caused the line
to be suspended, but why did it take until the early afternoon to clear?

Also, Bank/Monument station was shut for a while this morning due to a
'Power Failure'. Was this connected, and does anyone know what was
actually going on?

Nothing confirmed publicly yet, but I have heard rumours of 'something
fell off the train' (not a motor this time!) and caused a bit of damage
to the track.

The power failure you referred to was probably when the current was
discharged to allow the evacuation of the train(s) stalled in the
tunnel.
