Alex PS. Up to 10,000 sigs now || May a thousand flies crawl up the bottoms of all the health & saftey || killjoys. Oi! That's my job now (since my "proper" job was evaporated in a reorganisation of the company a month ago). I'm quite popular with the directors, as I use a fairly light touch in approaching H&S issues :p It all depends on how you interpret phrases like "reasonably practicable" and "foreseeable risk". It is quite possible to take a common-sense approach and get the job done (like make sure people don't die if there is a fire) without making everyone's life a misery. Mind you, there is immense scope for jobsworthiness and killjoyativity if you wanted to be a complete arse. I'll tie my trouser bottoms up just in case!

The next series of Top Gear has been postponed until presenter Richard Hammond has recovered. The 36-year-old has been moved to a general ward after spending time in intensive care recovering from a brain injury he suffered in a high-speed accident while filming for the programme. The series was due to begin on October 8. A BBC statement read: "We would not think of finalising plans for the next series without discussing it with everyone involved. "When it is suitable, the team will do this and we will announce a new transmission date." The presenter is still at Leeds General Infirmary. A hospital spokesman said: "He is continuing to do well."

But lest face it if they did pull the plug there would be pleanty of other channels chomping at th ebit to take up a show in the same format, same presenters...perhaps call it "Overdrive" or "Warpdrive" or as no doubt Jeremy keeps reminding the Hammers "Can't Drive" ;-) Lee D > beamendsltd <beamendsltd@btconnect.com> uttered summat worrerz funny > about: [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Lee D If the show was banned because the Hamster had a blow out, does that mean all the soaps will be banned as well?

I don't see anywhere that it was going to be banned - the Beeb just said they may have to delay transmission and/or do some editing to respect Mr. Hannonds families whishes should he have not recovered. As he is seemingly going to recover well enough, there would appear to be no problem, but the Beeb might as well let the rumour mill keep running as it is all generating millions of pounds worth of free programme advertising - even in these groups!
