Holly Willoughby was reportedly forced to evacuate the Dancing On Ice studios last week in her hair rollers after a fire alert.
The TV presenter, 41, was busy getting ready when she is said to have had to make a swift exit along with the rest of the cast and crew.
The alert left all inside fleeing the purpose-built studio at Bovington Airfield in Hertfordshire according to a source.
It's said all involved were left outside in the cold while immediate safety checks were carried out inside.
Creative director Dan Whiston claimed everyone had to speed outside to the car park in the frantic scenes.

"Many of the celebrities, including Holly, had to brave the cold weather outside whilst safety checks were carried out.
"The alarm sounded, and everyone sped outside into the car park. We were show mid-preparation when it happened, so quite a few of us weren’t even fully dressed, and Holly still had her hair rollers in."

The Mirror has contacted Holly's representatives for comment.
The latest action from the weekend shows saw Michelle Heaton become the second celebrity to get the boot. The former Liberty X singer failed to impress during Musicals Week, leaving her to be sent home.
She admitted she was "gutted" at the outcome, with fans complaining her exit came due to a cruel twist meaning there was no skate-off for the first time in the show's history.
