Digital Spy also reports that:

Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond has left Leeds General Infirmary for a hospital closer to his home.

Stuart Ross, the presenter's consultant neurosurgeon, said that Hammond suffered a "significant brain injury" but added that he should make a full recovery in "six months time."

"He has to rest and allow his brain to recover and that takes time," explained Ross. "I'm sure that once that period is over he will be back to his old self."

Great news!
