Production on the set of hit TV show BROTHERS & SISTERS ground to a halt last week (ends 31Jul09) after one crew member was struck down with swine flu.
Filming on the drama series, which stars Sally Field, Rob Lowe and Calista Flockhart, was interrupted for one day on 27 July (09) when an unidentified worker developed symptoms of the potentially fatal disease.
According to the National Enquirer, veteran actress Field insisted on shutting down the set to minimise the risk to the rest of the cast and crew, particularly those with young families.
A source tells the tabloid, "Sally took control and personally pulled the plug. She didn't even give the producers time to react.
"She was fiercely concerned about everyone, especially her co-star Rachel Griffiths. Sally snapped at producers, 'Rachel's got a newborn! There's no way in hell we're going back to work until this set is declared 100 per cent safe!'"
Medics were called in to determine the level of risk and gave the set the all clear.
