I would imagine there is footage, as they most likely filmed it for broadcassting ... just don't know if they'd release it ...

Well, filming for the new series has continued, though no schedule for broadcasting has been set ... Hammond seems to be doing a lot better than was expected by the doctors ...

Hm ... Top Gear homepage is back to "normal" w/o a link to the news on Hammond, and the "sign up to be in the audience" link is back ... so does that mean it will be back on TV soon??? Sure hope so ... :ok:
