Eileen Derbyshire had a close call on set recently when she accidentally set her clothing on fire! Seems she stood too close to a tea light while filming scenes for Sophie's birthday and a shawl she was wearing caught the flames! A quick thinking crew member got to her quickly and doused the fire but her costume was ruined and Eileen was shaken up.
Eileen wasn't seriously injured and was back filming the next day. The scenes are scheduled to air around Bonfire Night, coincidentally enough! Read more about the incident here.
