Broadchurc­h actress Sarah breaks leg in sledge accident

-

ACTRESS Sarah Parish was left with a shattered leg while trying to sledge in the snow.

The Broadchurc­h star, 49, had been playing with her daughter at her UK home when she had the horrific accident.

Sarah was using a blue plastic sledge to whizz down a slope in her garden when she tried to stand up on it – and badly injured herself.

She shared a snap of herself being wrapped in a foil blanket and given gas and air by paramedics as they strapped her to a spinal board and brought her to a local hospital. Sarah captioned a shot of her leg in a cast: “Day 2 in Winchester Hospital. Looks like I’ll be operated on today. “They’re putting a bloody great big pin right through my shin. No sleep last night. “Note to self: cheap plastic sledges are for sitting in and NOT a substitute for a snowboard.” Sarah Parish
