Alex Scott has revealed that she was almost snatched by a 'sicko' Uber driver in Russia who tried to 'touch her and kiss her legs' while she was covering the 2018 Moscow World Cup for the BBC.
The football pundit, 38, shared that on work trips, the BBC insisted that staff use official, pre-booked cars.
However, the pundit was out for the evening having a drink with a friend and chose to get an Uber back to her hotel with a male driver, who turned on her a few moments into the 15-minute drive.
Through Google Translate on his phone he said: 'Girls like you, I kill', with Alex only managing to escape when she told him she had to go and see President Putin, who she met that morning.
