Mend Radiator Pipe Valve

How can I fix a leaking radiator?

One of our radiators is leaking from the pipe that joins the radiator at the opposite end to the valve. The collae is broken and obviously needs replacing but I am unsure about draining the radiator and if I need to drain the whole system??

you can plug the system in the loft or drain the system down then replace the collar or place new trv,s (thermostatic radiator valves) hope this helps
