The really good thing that has come out of this awful accident is £175,000 (so far) for Yorkshire Air Ambulance - it may mean an extra helicopter and who knows how many more lives saved.

I must try that myself
That sounds brilliant - I've only watched a little of Brainiac but it looked hilarious!
In all honesty it is a prgamme for sad people like me who enjoy blowing things up. What made the show great was Hammy's utter joy at doing all of the ludicrous things they did. That and Jon Tickle walking on swimming pool of custard
Hasn't he got a sister called Tess ??
