However, this time around the collision doesn't seem to be as serious as locals near the set of EastEnders in Elstree, Hertfordshire said: “I heard the smash, came out and saw Dean Gaffney by the side of the road.

“He was looking at his car and so was the other driver.

"They didn’t seem hurt.”

A spokesman for Gaffney confirmed he was in a “minor accident”.
