A Place In The Sun star Craig Rowe has recalled a 'scary' and 'harrowing' car incident after following his online phone map while filming in rural Greece . The bubbly presenter is back for a new series of the hit Channel 4 property show but Craig admitted that he feared a past episode could be his last after his car got suck on a slope in a rural town, where he was eventually rescued by police and firemen. Talking exclusively to the Mirror , Craig said: "In Crete last year, I picked up a car from the airport, just a little basic car, it wasn't very powerful - to say it had the power of a sewing machine would probably be overstating.
"Anyway, I picked up this car, I obviously would have picked another car but I got there so late so I had to get the car that was available. The reason I would have picked another car isn't because I'm being fancy, it's because some of the roads are really really bad and there's lots of loose gravel. They're mountain roads, when you come up from the beach and go inland, they're basically mountain roads and you need a good car! "Anyway, I was going to a property, I was going to meet the team at a property to do the filming.
I was following maps [on my phone], which again I would caution people when you're on an island as the remote part of the island, sometimes the map just isn't right. Anyway, this map told me to go left, then told me to go right, you know when you're driving up a road and you think: 'This doesn't feel right!' but I thought, trust.
