BBC news host Reeta Chakrabarti thanked a stranger for their act of kindness after she attended A&E late on Friday night.
The 56-year-old reached out to a person in the waiting room via Twitter on Saturday morning to thank the “complete stranger” for their support when the reporter was in pain as she waited to be seen.
The news favourite wanted to thank her supportive new pal after he bought her a range of cold drinks while she winced in pain as they sat together in the London hospital.
And after his kind gesture, the news anchor reached out to her good Samaritan online to thank him for his help in her hour of need.

She penned: “I was in A and E last night – it wasn’t serious thankfully but I was in pain – a lovely person in the waiting room saw I was suffering and went to buy me some cold drinks.
“Just like that, a complete stranger. Hope you are on Twitter, thank you.”
She added: “We spend a lot of time reporting bad news, so I wanted to share a simple act of human kindness – they do happen!”
