A neighbour of the posh country manor, where stars including Olivia Bentley and Eliza Batten are filming, said: “It was really scary.

“The car was engulfed in flames and firefighters were called to deal with the blaze.

“The cast were far enough away so they were safe but some were a bit shaken.”

The posh West Sussex pad boasts 23 acres of land, an indoor swimming pool, a games room, stables, art studio and a tennis court.

Perfect for a bunch of toffs.

I revealed filming would take place at the stately home after the usual West London hangouts had to be ditched due to Covid.

A show source said: “Producers came up with the idea to hire a big country house and see what unfolds.”

I’m sure there’ll be flaming rows.

Cat says bye LA, hi to the UK

SHE’S been away for 14 years, but now Cat Deeley has quit LA to come home.

The 43-year-old presenter, who put her £3.8million Beverly Hills house on the market, is already back on UK soil with husband Patrick Kielty and their two sons.

A source said: “This is more of a permanent move.

“She is a household name, and they both made it work in LA, but Patrick gets a lot more work back home, and she could always fly back and forth when the pandemic eases up.

“They were more than ready for this and wanted to be closer to family and friends and have their sons grow up in Britain. It’s a new adventure.”

It comes after we revealed Cat was set to reunite with Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly for an SM:TV reunion in the near future.

Fingers crossed this means a proper return of SM:TV, not just a one-off.
