Speaking of one incident, she said: “We were playing bowls, and it got dark and I fell down a ditch. I ended up with a big gash in my leg.”

What else happened to Linda Robson on the show?

That wasn’t the end of Linda’s woes on the show though. The actor also spoke of an incident that happened at a water park. She revealed that she was on a water raft, but let go of it.

“I freestyled down [the slide]. I went up a wall, came back down again and the raft landed on top of me,” she said.

Linda Robson said that she didn’t injure herself during that incident, but lost her dignity.

“I did wet myself and everything fell out of my swimming costume,” she said. She then said that she’s hoping they won’t air that part on the show.
