\u201cUnfortunately I slipped on a muddy patch on the steep path, and it took a whole host of people to get me to hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n
Allsopp struggled to remember many details of the incident and her rescue but thanked everyone responsible for getting her to the hospital safely.<\/p>\n
The broadcaster paid tribute to the paramedics and ambulance workers who helped her.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have operated on the leg and I\u2019ll be home soon. It\u2019ll be a boot and crutches for a while but I feel very, very lucky that it was possible to reach me and get me to hospital so quickly, and I have a job that I can do on crutches. Not a birthday I am going to forget in a hurry and again, THANK YOU to all those who have been involved in my care.\u201d<\/p>\n
