FIREFIGHTERS at a North Yorkshire fire station got a surprise when a celebrity dropped in with a bit of an emergency.
North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue say former BBC Breakfast presenter, Steph McGovern, 39, who now presents The Steph Show on Channel 4, dropped in at Harrogate fire station shortly after 9am today (August 20) to get a ring cut off her finger after a painful accident.
Speaking on Twitter, Steph said: "Eventful morning, started with trip to Harrogate fire station to get a ring cut off a swollen finger I’d trapped in door.
"Thanks so much to sorting it out! Straight after had to take my daughter for first ever day at nursery."
A spokesman for the service said: "Crews cut the ring off Steph's finger using a ring cutter and then she was free to go about her day!"
