'This could be a disaster!' Presenter Sarra Elgan gets caught up in live TV chaos

The presenter was nearly flattened ahead of Harlequins' clash with Bath

TNT Sports presenter Sarra Elgan came within inches of being completely flattened ahead of Harlequins' clash with Bath as a live TV segment went wrong.

The Welsh host was reporting from the centre of the pitch at The Stoop during the build-up to Saturday's Premiership clash when she got a little too close to the action.

Both sides were running through last minute drills either side of Elgan, who was wary that she might get in the way of one, if not both, of the teams. As she scanned the pitch, she warned viewers: "This may be a disaster".

Her fears came true moments later as midway through the segment, Harlequins players barrelled past her and the camera crew, leading her to scream and apologise to the team.

"We're very much looking forward to this one," Elgan said as she introduced the segment with a giggle. "Excitement and anticipation is building. I'm laughing, because we've got Bath coming this way, Harlequins coming this way... this could be a disaster.

"But anyway, both these teams were brilliant last week," she added, before being interrupted by the barrage of Quins players. The presenter said: "I'm so sorry! I told you this was going to be a disaster!"

Luckily, Elgan avoided any injury and laughed off the incident as she kept her composure and added: "Both these teams were brilliant last week, Bath were great in the second half at Kingsholm and Harlequins were brilliant in defence - and seemingly knocking over presenters - here last week against Saracens.
