Life went down the pan for one unlucky flats dweller.

For they were forced to put in a call to firefighters after getting stuck answering a call of nature!

The person made the 999 mercy plea to crews at 4.15pm last night.

Strood firefighters were called to the block of flats in Albatross Avenue, Strood.

They used a 23ft ladder to climb in through the bathroom window, with the rescue taking around 15 minutes.
