not to bring up an old sore subject…but i just stumbled across this video…it fits the thread, apparently people are pissed off at Top Gear for putting Hammond up to this… [http://www.dpccars.com/car-movies/09-30-06page-Top-Gear-crash-details.htm](http://www.dpccars.com/car-movies/09-30-06page-Top-Gear-crash-details.htm) ---

They have a page set up on the BBC site for updates: [http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/richard\_hammond.shtml](http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/richard_hammond.shtml) I guess he’s doing surprisingly well and they’ve resumed filming the parts that he’s not in. ---
