Yvette Fielding has revealed how she was quizzed by police after they thought she was making a blue movie.
The former Blue Peter star, who became the show’s youngest-ever presenter in 1987, aged 18, was filming with the British bobsleigh team in Germany at the time.
Yvette, now 54, said the video footage of her sliding down the icy track couldn’t be used because she was “singing her head off”.

In a bid to replace her singing with “authentic” noises, the Blue Peter team bundled Yvette into a car and rocked it, with sound and camera operators standing around with microphones in a car park.

It wasn’t long before police came calling, thinking they were making a porn film.
Yvette, best known these days for presenting Most Haunted, said: “They recorded in the car, rattling the seats, making ‘bobsleigh’ noises.
“All the windows steamed up and the German police were called because they thought something lewd was going on.”

Yvette was training with the British bobsleigh team in 1988 ahead of the Winter Olympics in Calgary, Canada.
Speaking previously, Yvette said that after quitting Blue Peter she was so skint she searched her vacuum cleaner bag for spare change, and ended up on the dole.
She said: “I had no alternative but to go on the dole.
“At one point, I even started looking in the hoover bag to see if there was any loose change.
“Eventually, after teaching drama and appearing in pantomime, the TV jobs returned.”
But life turned around for the star and she later landed a role on TV’s Most Haunted – which could arguably send shivers down anyone’s spine.

However, she quit after three members of the crew were reportedly injured on set by ghouls.
During an appearance on This Morning, Yvette said: “One of the crew members, Stuart, is stood in front of the camera.
“He’s got a black leather jacket on and a white T-shirt underneath and he’s screaming, ‘Ahh, my back’s burning, my back’s burning’.
“And I pull his leather jacket off and you can see the blood coming through his T-shirt.”
Of the spooky setting, Yvette added: “It’s supposed to be where witches held a coven and did all sorts of very negative things and people that go there on tours, members of the public, have actually reported having scratches.”
Yvette then revealed two other team members were hurt, resulting in a sound department employee being hospitalised.
