Kirstie Allsopp (main picture) has been forced to pull out of filming for the latest series of Location, Location, Location after falling head first down a pub staircase.
The Channel 4 TV star had been filming the show with alongside fellow estate agent favourite Phil Spencer in London’s Stoke Newington when the accident happened.
HEAD FIRST
Taking to Instagram she told her 319,000 followers alongside a video from her bed: “News from bed… stupidly I went head first down a pub staircase yesterday morning while filming @c4locationsofficial
“I am battered & bruised and putting my pants on is a struggle 😂 but I’ll be back on track soon.
“@philspencertv is stepping into the breach and is taking over with my house hunters. On L,L,L what comes first is the lovely people who give up their time to house hunt with us and we must never forget that. 😘 [sic]”
She says in the video, which has been watched by nearly 125,000 times: “Today is Wednesday, and it’s a working day. I should be out filming Location, Location, Location.
“Except yesterday, when we were in a pub in Stoke Newington, filming a chat with our lovely house hunters Beth and Rory, I went off to the loo.
“And unfortunately I got something wrong and I ended up falling down an entire flight of stairs.”
SCARIEST THING
She adds later: “It was, I think without a doubt, the scariest thing and most painful thing I have ever done in my life and I feel immensely blessed to be lying here in bed and not having broken anything. I’m bruised and battered.
“I went and had an x-ray and a CT scan. And I’ve been looked over by a lovely doctor.”
GOOD SPIRITS
And taking to X, formerly Twitter, yesterday, Allsop seemed in good spirits, replying to one follower: “it’s driving me crazy tbh, my happy place is tidying, cleaning & organising, if not working that’s what I do while listening to podcasts or audio books, my son’s new curtains have arrived but I can’t put them up. I always knew being infirm was pants, now I’m experiencing it [sic].
Just last month The Neg reported how the property industry and the TV world had been sending their condolences to Location, Location, Location presenter Phil Spencer after both his parents were killed while driving near their home in Kent.
