Declan Donnelly's icey accident

10-09-2007 12:00

Declan Donnelly was rushed to hospital after he fell while ice skating for his live TV show on Saturday (08.09.07).

The 31-year-old star slipped on the ice during a skate-off challenge with TV partner Ant McPartlin for their new series of 'Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway'.

However, as the show is live Dec was forced to carry on until the end of the programme and viewers saw him grimace in agony.

He was then whisked off to hospital where scans revealed he had a badly sprained ankle.

An insider said: "It was a nasty crash and made the audience wince. But the boys still had to finish the show, so Dec and to grin and bear it.

"Then he called out to the team and they decided to go to hospital. At least there's nothing broken.

"Fortunately it's a spelling challenge next week."
