Here’s a bit more info on the state of Richard Hammond after the accident that we mentioned on the show this week:

PRESENTER of British motoring program Top Gear Richard Hammond suffered a significant brain injury in a high-speed crash in a jet-powered car while filming for the program, a hospital spokesman said today.

“He has suffered a significant brain injury,” the spokesman said.

“It is still giving cause for concern as it is still early after the injury. However, we are reasonably optimistic that he will make a good recovery.”
