Get off my fracking land! Furious farmer sprays MANURE at Oscar winning actress Emma Thompson after she breaks a court injunction to protest on his field
- Actress Emma Thompson and her sister Sophie baked cakes on Lancashire land earmarked for gas exploration
- Sisters breached High Court injunction prohibiting entry to site and Lancashire Police called but no arrests made
- The irate landowner then turned up and sprayed raw sewage at the pair before driving away in his tractor
- Emma and Sophie - who won celebrity Masterchef - filmed Great British Bake Off parody, 'Frack Free Bake Off'
- Do you know the farmer? Email Amie.Gordon@mailonline.co.uk An irate farmer sprayed raw sewage at Oscar winning star Emma Thompson and her sister Sophie after they flouted a court injunction protecting a fracking site.
The stars were filming a Great British Bake Off parody for Greenpeace when the owner of the field they trespassed on drove his muck spreader in circles around the demonstrators.
A group of protesters were hit by the manure but the actresses remained dry in their tent, complete with Bake Off-inspired bunting.
Police were also called and also spoke to the actresses, who climbed over a gate and set up camp on land earmarked for gas exploration in Fylde, Lancashire.
Emma and Sophie, who won Celebrity Masterchef, filmed a pastiche episode of the Great British Bake Off called Frack Free Bake Off to voice their opposition to the fracking plans.

“With the exception of Whites, the rule among the peoples of the world, whether residing in their homelands or settled in Western democracies, is ethnocentrism and moral particularism: they stick together and good means what is good for their ethnic group."
