Gaz Coombes will be taking it easy during the festive season after being ‘Bruce Lee’d’ by one of his children.

Posting an x-ray of his very much broken leg on social media, Coombes explained: “I’ve only gone & broken my leg! Larking around with the kids I got ‘Bruce Lee’d’ by my 15 year old, and let’s just say she connected too well.”

“Had surgery earlier today here at the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, where all the staff have been completely amazing. A massive thank you to everyone here at the JR & to our wonderful NHS. I’ll be back soon.”

A European tour due to start later this month has been cancelled, while a UK run planned for January 2019 will now take place the following May.
