Story summary

TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp expressed relief on social media after her stolen Land Rover Defender was recovered. The theft occurred in London, shortly after she broke her leg during a fall at a beach in Devon. Initially, Allsopp joked that the car might have been shipped to Timbuktu due to its value and rarity. She had earlier shared a photo of the vehicle marked 'Norland', a neighborhood in west London's Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. On Wednesday, she thanked both the Met Police and Land Rover’s tracking system for locating her car, which was instrumental since it allowed her to travel comfortably after her leg injury surgery.
