Jason Donovan rushed out of his home in his underpants armed with a fire extinguisher to help put out a blaze near his London home.
The fire service confirmed there had been a blaze at the star’s home in Notting Hill, West London, tweeting: ‘Everyone needs good neighbours – Jason Donovan surprises firefighters at ‘NottingHill fire.’
The 51-year-old thanked the emergency services for getting there so quickly after he’d raced to help his neighbour.
He tweeted: ‘Thank you to the @LondonFire for getting to the situation so quickly, glad no one was hurt. This is a good reason to always wear PJs to bed (in case of emergencies) but much more importantly to have fire extinguishers at hand in the home.’

London Fire Brigade said it was called just after 4am on September 22. Watch Manager Thomas Wolfe said: ‘The fire was located in the side passage next to a house and when we arrived a gentleman was tackling the fire using a fire extinguisher. We took over from him and quickly dealt with the blaze.

‘It soon transpired that it was Jason Donovan who noticed the fire from his property over the road.
‘The fire is believed to have been caused by a fault in electrical cabling.’
It’s not the first time this year that Donovan has offered a helping hand in an emergency.
In May, he saw that a woman had collapsed in the street near his home and his first thought was to help.
The Australian star had been out for a jog when he spotted the woman unconscious on the pavement in Notting Hill.
Instead of carrying on with his run, the Australian actor went to her aid and was seen taking directions from a 999 operator on his phone.
He stayed with her after paramedics arrived, holding her hand while she was assessed.
When she came round, the woman recognised her helper. The former soap star grinned as she shook his hand before she was taken to hospital by ambulance.
