Gogglebox star's unfortunate vending machine injury

Gogglebox star Izzi Warner has shared an unfortunate injury she picked up off camera this week. The star went swimming when she became an unlikely victim of a stuck sweet treat.

Speaking on this evening's (September 30) edition of Gogglebox, she shared the story with sister Ellie. And how she warned fellow swimmers to be cautious of the machine.

Izzi said: "I went swimming yesterday, and what's the ritual when you've been with a child?" Ellie quickly added: "Vending machine."

Izzi continued: "I got my arm stuck in a vending machine yesterday. To add insult to injury, it were a pound for a snack-sized packet of Maltesers.

"Stick my hand in to grab them out, it got wedged, pulled my arm, and it got stuck in the flap and nicked me skin."

The unfortunate chocolate-based anecdote came as the stars of the show watched Kings of Pain. The series features biologist Adam Thorn and animal handler Rob Alleva as they test out their pain threshold.

This week's Gogglebox showed the pair being bitten by reptiles, leaving the star's in shock. Sopgie Sandiford compared the programme to the 'Tripadvisor for stings'.

While Ellie also recalled a moment her sister was stung on the tongue by a wasp while eating a Calippo. The incident happened during a trip to Scarborough beach.
