I take it youve all heard about Richard Hammond, how awful is that? I hope he'll be ok! He lives near us, and he seems so nice, I realise driving like thats dangerous but it still seems a bit wierd to think that hes critically ill!
Maybe he should take up pimping instead - Top Pimp! Much safer!

my mum told me about it when she had heard it on the radio [Sad] hope he gets better soon
I know [Crying or Very sad] I really was almost in tears when I heard. Top Gear has only recently become a part of my life (I was introduced by dear blueeyes) but it is quite fixed there now. They really had better not cancel next week's, what shall I do?
my boyfriend loves cars so we have to watch it ever week (even the best ofs even though we've seen them all a million times) and richard makes it so much nicer to watch! Also its really funny, i cant wait for the new series, but obviously i really hope he gets better soon and hope his familys ok. Theyve been talking about it on telly all day!
Well, in today's blame society it's likely it will at least get changed. Of course Hammond should be responsible for his own actions, since I'm sure he was fully aware of the risks, but the media are starting to attack the BBC.
Fat lot of good that's going to do anyone. I hate it when the media do that.
Clarkson and Captain Slow are quoted on the BBC website as saying they are looking forward to getting their "hamster" back - hopefully this means Richard will be okay, and Top Gear will continue. No idea what The Stig said , though.
the media have been attacking the bbc and the show today. I did think at one point they were making it sound like it was all his fault, but really it was just a freak accident that was very unfortunate for him - after all he must have known the risks and hes a really experienced driver
Well according to the paper he has "a significant brain injury", which doesn't sound great. He's not out of the woods yet. But the doctors have also been quoted as saying they're optimistic he'll make a good recovery.
I read too that when Clarkson visited him in hospital he started giving out about his bad drving - which brought a smile to Richard's face - great news. [Very Happy]
Quite upset about this if I'm honest, and as said before - someone that cute shouldn't have to suffer.
Best wishes to him and his family for his recovery - am sure his girls are missing him at home. [Crying or Very sad]
i made a car shaped birthday cake for my boyfriend back in may and it was really easy to make....i suppose a wagon wheel is quite fitting too - decorated to look like a car alloy or something
actually Richard Hammonds wife has requested that instead of flowers and gifts, people give a donation to the Yorkshire Air ambulance.
Perhaps a yellow helicopter cake?
