Flames scorched Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's English country mansion on Friday, the result of a faulty lamp.

None of the family was at the house in Jordans, 42km west of London, when the blaze occurred. Paramedics treated a member of the household staff for smoke inhalation. The blaze caused minor fire and smoke damage to the mansion's entrance.
