LIZZIE Cundy has told how two men tried to break into her home before crashing their getaway car.
The broadcaster, 55, had been in the bath when the pair tried to force their way into her house.
In a post on Instagram, she said: ";So this happened last night.
"After a lovely dinner with a friend, I was taking a bath and heard a huge bang and noise downstairs.
"Someone sounded like they were trying to get in my house. Luckily a passing farmer saw someone lurking around and thought it was suspicious and called the police immediately.
"Thankfully the police came around in minutes to my home but the two men drove off into my fence with such speed they overturned their car as you can see from the photo above.
"They then ran off into the night and the police couldn’t catch them.
"I just want to say a huge thank you to Hampshire police who came over so quickly and stayed with me. The police were amazing.
"This is happening way to often especially in rural areas. We all need to look after each other.
"Thankfully someone did for me. If anyone knows anything please contact Hampshire police.
