The broadcaster had initially criticised the decision, saying the crew should have let nature take its course.

But changing his mind, he said: “You aren’t actually touching the animal. All the cameraman did was to just make a little groove in the ice, so that the penguin could get a foothold and get out of the hole.”

But he admitted that he would not interfere with a hunt should he see an animal about to be killed by a predator.

Millions watched the group of emperor penguins become stranded during a harsh Antarctic winter during November’s show.

However the BBC revealed the crew decided to act, digging a shallow ramp.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
