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. Unfortunately, I got something wrong and I ended up falling down an entire flight of stairs.
"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."

Kirstie added: "Hopefully if I am feeling up to it I will Facetime them to give my advice from bed." Kirstie was told to get plenty of bed rest and the bruising meant that "sitting or going in the car is out of the question."
She said: "Sadly that spa weekend I was taking my sister on is no longer happening, but I am really grateful, to be honest, it was quite comic ... When I was lying with my dress around my waist on the pub floor, I thought, 'Oh my god there is a comic element to it.' There were so many people that were so kind and helpful, Bernie from Enfield, Hayley from New York, and you know, you rely on the kindness of strangers when you are in that situation so I am very grateful."
Captioning the post, Kirstie wrote: "News from bed…stupidly I went headfirst 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."
