Phillip Schofield has revealed his COVID isolation meant he was able to avert a flood at his home. The TV star, 59, has had to miss Dancing On Ice and This Morning over the last few days as he has the coronavirus.

But after finding a leak in his ceiling he reckons every cloud has a silver lining.Schofe posted a message on Instagram telling his fans that if he had been out at the rink this weekend he would have returned to find his home flooded.Sharing a clip of water dripping onto his floor, he wrote: "Life is full of small consolations..

if I hadn't tested positive and had gone to @dancingonice the house would be flooded."The TV presenter shared a clip of water dripping around a light fixture in his house as he said: "Remind me not to turn on that light!"The star then shared a photo showing that a square section had been cut out of the ceiling."Surprisingly I'm very calm," he said. "As they say in the movie, 'Don't look up'."Stephen Mulhern took over from Phil on Dancing On Ice, while his seat on the This Morning sofa was filled by other presenters such as Alison Hammond and Josie Gibson.And it looks like that is set to continue, as the star also shared a snap of a lateral flow test, revealing it was still positive."This really is the day that keeps on giving!!" he captioned the shot."Sorry @thismorning @hollywilloughby."Luckily, the star has said he feels "fine" since testing positive.Appearing on This Morning via video-link last week, he said: "I haven't even got a sore throat now.

I've sneezed twice, and that's it! I've got a slight temperature."This is not what I expected, I've got to say."For more of the latest showbiz news from Daily Star, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here..

Putin miscalculated if he thinks West will move on after Ukraine invasion: ambassador
Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a “miscalculation” if he thinks the West will move on from his unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, says Canada’s ambassador to the sovereign democracy.In an interview with The West Block guest host Eric Sorenson, Larisa Galadza spoke from Poland where the ambassador and Canada’s diplomatic staff are operating amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.Galadza and the Canadian embassy staff had been based in Kyiv before relocating to the western Ukrainian city of Lviv as the invasion began, and subsequently left the country for Poland.“It’s like a sea of humanity. It’s people standing in lineups, many of them on foot, but a lot of them are still in cars coming over the border,” Galadza said in describing Ukrainians fleeing their country.She said any assumptions on the part of Putin that the West will move on or get over his invasion of Ukraine is just “another miscalculation.”“It’s not the first miscalculation, I think, that Russia has made,” she added.“The response that we’re seeing from our like-minded governments, the response that we’re seeing from Ukrainians themselves, is unprecedented.”Some 1.2 million Ukrainians have been forced to flee as a result of the first land war on the European continent since the Second World War.

World's COVID-19 death toll nears 6 million
BANGKOK (AP) - The official global death toll from COVID-19 is on the verge of eclipsing 6 million — underscoring that the pandemic, now in its third year, is far from over.The milestone is the latest tragic reminder of the unrelenting nature of the pandemic even as people are shedding masks, travel is resuming and businesses are reopening around the globe. The death toll, compiled by Johns Hopkins University, stood at 5,996,882 as of Sunday morning and was expected to pass the 6 million mark later in the day.Remote Pacific islands, whose isolation had protected them for more than two years, are just now grappling with their first outbreaks and deaths, fueled by the highly contagious omicron variant.Hong Kong, which is seeing deaths soar, is testing its entire population of 7.5 million three times this month as it clings to mainland China’s "zero-COVID" strategy.As death rates remain high in Poland, Hungary, Romania and other Eastern European countries, the region has seen more than 1 million refugees arrive from war-torn Ukraine, a country with poor vaccination coverage and high rates of cases and deaths.And despite its wealth and vaccine availability, the United States is nearing 1 million reported deaths on its own.A nurse checks on a patient in the ICU Covid-19 ward at NEA Baptist Memorial Hospital in Jonesboro, Arkansas, U.S., on Wednesday, Aug.
