Thank you for your quick response - was really worried that it was faulty.
Was the Kindle battery flat? That may explain why you couldn't turn it off as it already was off. The indexing process uses significantly more power than normal and if the Kindle overestimated on remaining battery life then it might not have had the chance to display the please charge your Kindle screen.
You should always be able to restart the Kindle if you slide and hold the power button for 20+ seconds.

No the battery wasn't flat because I could still turn pages and open up a book. Tired holding the power button for 20+ secs and that seems to have worked. Will now fully charge it so hopefully that will fix the problem.
Also discovered after reading comments on Amazon forum that I should never switch it off at night - just let it go to sleep on its own.
Thanks again for your help
