Richard Hammond?

Warlock Fiend

Top Gear is worth the licence fee alone. And as the butt of the jokes Richard Hammond helps to make it. Love him in braniac too. Chins up guys I'm sure he'll pull through

bringmesunshine is back!!!

Please don't cancel the show BBC, it's one of the few things left on its schedules that makes me laugh. If you replace it with 'Celebrity Wallpapering and Rag Rollering' I'll never forgive you!!!

Hope Richard will be back on it soon.

MRS P

really sad too, hope he gets better soon.

TOP GEAR!!!!!TOP BLOKE!!!!TOP OF MY GET WELL SOON LIST!!!!

Mr Slug

I'm feeling a bit sad for him. As for the rocket powered car, isn't it just the natural cycle of telly and the media in general to push the envelope that bit further each time? Very sad.

Ooh I just heard about him, bless his little cotton socks! I hope he's ok, I heard he was in a critical condition for an accident in the filming but thats all I know.

k_hayley89

wow, what happened...i think hes great!!!!!

Bodieann

I'm absolutely gutted too. Can't believe it.....

I truly hope he gets well as he is a top man and good presenter.
At the end of the day Top Gear is Top Gear and they know what makes a good programme for the viewers. Telling them to stop would be like telling all the great adventures to stop looking and searching for what ever. You cant stop or should not stop progress and before I get shouted down it was his job he knew the risks as they all do. Every day is a risk for all of us Steve Errwin knew the risks but look at what he showed us and taught us.
I wish him well and a speedy recovery and my thoughts are with him, family and friends.

I think rocket powered cars are going a bit too far.

The Black Falcon

Couldn't agree more, it's awful that this has happened, but he's an inteligent bloke and knew the risks of driving a rocket car at 300mph on a 2 mile strip of tarmac. If he hadn't have had the accident we would have all thought wow, great TV and then put it in the back of our minds waiting for the following weeks stunt.

I hope he puuls through as he brightens up the world of cars and TV.

Yes they should calm down on what they do. I personally think they should show cars within a normal persons budget as well and not test drive Merc's, Bentleys etc. Hope he fully recovers. He is a brilliant presentor on Top Gear and Brainiac.

I'm gutted, i love top gear, apart from the caravan bashing! and he is my fave, i hope he gets better, my prayers are with him and his family tonight, pull through Richard you are the best xxx xxx

Yeah I think he is a legend, he is so funny on Top Gear, perhaps when he's better he can say on Top Gear to Jeremy Clarkson , it handled so bad Even u would have crashed.I hope is gets through it TOP TOP BLOKE.

whispernikki

i hope and pray that he lives for his family sake .

Ahh, I love Richard Hammond! Hope he's OK, flipping over a rocket powered car at 280mph cant be that good for you tho! But hey, driving is something he loves, is good at and gets paid vast amounts of money for. Any of us can have an accident at work.

mentor

Its Twelve O'clock Friday lunchtime and on the news they say that he has been taken out of intensive care,hopefully he will make a good recovery.

shi* i just read this on the net are they completly mad i watch the show
for my boys toys what i carnt aford this is taking it to far dont you think!

salvationcity

Really hope they don't tone down the show, but I expect the series due to start in October will be put on hold for a while.

If someone had said to me 'Would you like to get in this car and drive very fast?' I would have said a very big YES! I haven't met anyone yet to says they would have said no.

My guess is Richard's crash will have been caused by debris on the runway leading to tyre blowout, just like Concorde a few years ago.

Mr Glenn

That is a pity - could have been Clarkson....

VernHead123

Hope he dies

Phish

Serves the irritating little prat right. He's an annoying numpty, and so is Clarkson.
