Paddy McGuinness turned up to film a bingo advert only to stumble across a real crime scene.

The Bolton comedian and his crew arrived on a street in Salford this morning just 30 yards away from where gunmen blasted the windows of a house.

They had crashed one of two getaway cars at the end of the street, which was by then swarming with forensic officers in lab coats.
