According to the Daily Record, Olivia Attwood opened up about a scary experience while filming the ITV2 reality series The Heat in Barcelona. She described filming in Barcelona as 'a treat,' but also revealed a hair-raising moment during a driving scene. A clip from the first episode shows Olivia picking up co-presenter Jean-Christophe Novelli in a classic red Fiat and transporting them to The Heat restaurant in Barcelona while dressed in a floor-length gown.
Olivia Attwood kept quiet about her concerns regarding driving during the scene but has now confessed she was uncomfortable about the trip. She stated, 'I took my life in my hands this day,' and added, 'No air conditioning, no power steering, I'm wearing a red floor-length dress and it was manual. ' She also remarked, 'They just cut you up,' referring to other drivers.
I took my life in my hands this day.
' The specific safety incidents or near-misses that made Olivia feel her life was at risk have not been detailed. The Heat is a culinary competition featuring aspiring chefs trying to win over Michelin Star-winning Jean-Christophe Novelli, and Olivia Attwood presents the programme alongside him. The show documents contestants as they unwind outside the kitchen environment, with the official synopsis stating it is not just a straightforward cooking competition, as cameras roll after kitchen service to capture post-shift dates, staff nights out, and blending of professional and personal lives.
The series wrapped up last week, with all 10 episodes now ready for streaming on ITVX.
Brave or foolish decision to get in the passenger seat.
No air conditioning, no power steering, I'm wearing a red floor-length dress and it was manual. I hadn't driven manual since my test.
They just cut you up.
How often do you get to film in places where your down time is on that kind of back drop? It's incredible.
