Linda Robson recalls terrifying moment she saved singer's young son in shop

Linda Robson has recalled the terrifying moment that she saved the life of Sade's young son.

The Birds of a Feather star, 64, appeared on Loose Women today as the panel spoke about how they would cope in an emergency.

Speaking about a memory that has stuck with her over the years, she explained that she had helped prevent a tragedy after Sade's young son ran out of a shop.

Linda had been in the store at the time with her own children.

She told her co-stars: "I was in a shop in Upper Street - it was a children's clothes shop and I had my kids in there, they were quite young.

"There was a woman in there paying at the till and all of a sudden someone opened the shop door and then this little boy went to walk out - it's right onto a main road.

"Anyway, I grabbed the little boy running back into the boy and it was Sade's little boy. She was going, 'Oh thank you, thank you so much.' She didn't even realise because she was paying."

Meanwhile Jane Moore also spoke about how she stopped a young child from drowning after they fell into a river while his parents weren't looking.

The journalist had been drinking with friends at the time when she spotted the child fall in.

She said: "I remember when I was very young - only 18 or something - and I was at a country pub with my friends, I'd drunk quite a bit of cider with my friends, it was a sunny day, I was by the side of a river.

"I remember suddenly out of the corner of my eye seeing this little boy just fall into the river and his parents hasn't noticed.

"I just jumped in, I didn't think. I jumped in, at which point they realised and came in running."
