The BBC has clarified reports about Kate Silverton’s fall during the filming of Big Cat Live.

The Daily Mail claimed that the news presenter tripped "headlong" into an elephant hole and was stretchered off set.

However, a spokesperson for the BBC said the newspapers claims were inaccurate.

"She did not fall into an elephant hole and she was not stretchered off," said a publicist. "She accidentally tripped on a divet while reading through her cue cards.

"She went on to present the live show a short time later."
