Lucy Pargeter Blames ‘Woolpack Bench’ For Her Injury
Lucy Pargeter, who plays Chas Dingle, shared pictures of a painful injury she got on set. She revealed her scraped and bruised leg and explained how it happened. She wrote on Instagram, “Taken out by a woolpack bench today!!!!” She even joked that the incident would likely appear on a bloopers show.
She added, “Although I’m not sure they have enough ‘bleeps’ to cover my potty mouth.” She also posted a picture of her scraped leg and assured fans that she would be fine despite the injury. Fans flooded the comments with well wishes, joking that her ‘potty mouth’ compliments her character.
They suggested she avoid stunt work. Viewers must remember that earlier this year, Chas faced the same cancer that took her mother, Faith. She bravely opted for a double mastectomy to prevent it from coming back. The soap gave an update on her condition.
In a scene, she told Gail Loman and Ryan Stocks about a routine hospital appointment where doctors urged her to undergo precautionary chemotherapy. Additionally, Lucy said she didn’t want to avoid any part of Chas’ diagnosis when the producers first discussed it with her.
