Extras star Ashley Jensen has admitted she was in a flap as she filmed a new farm-set comedy – due to a phobia of chickens.

She said: “There was a hairy moment for me when I had to go into a chicken coop. I was fine with 12 bullocks and a 13ft pile of manure, that was a doddle – I did my milkmaids badge in the Guides – but the bit for me was the blimming chickens in the chicken coop.”
