Countdown star and Southend's own Rachel Riley found herself trapped on the Elizabeth Line for four hours last night, after chaos struck the line. 

Hundreds of passengers found themselves stuck on the Elizabeth Line last night following an overhead cable fault which forced all trains to stop.

Rachel Riley posted on X: "Nearly 4 hours after we got on, we're getting off the Elizabeth Line, woohoo!"
