Stephanie Bryan of Bristol was working for electric bus company The Big Lemon when she experienced bowel trouble mid-shift so significant that the smell lingered long after her shift ended according to testimony at her employment tribunal.

Fellow driver Samantha Bingham took over after Bryan's shift ended, finding the stench in the cockpit so strong she believed her colleague must have defecated.

When Bingham returned home after her shift the scent remained so strong her partner asked if she had defecated herself.

Bingham felt compelled to immediately wash her uniform and shower to scrub it off.

Bryan was let go from her job with The Big Lemon following the incident and is now suing the company for disability discrimination and harassment.
