David Dimbleby injured by bullock

David Dimbleby is to miss chairing BBC One's Question Time for the first time in more than 15 years after being injured in a "minor farming accident". The 71-year-old was loading a bullock onto a trailer at his farm in Sussex when it reared, resulting in the presenter being briefly knocked out.
He also received a cut to the head that required stitches at a local hospital.
John Humphrys will replace Dimbleby in the chair on Thursday, while he remains in hospital for observation.
"I haven't missed a Question Time in over 15 years," Dimbleby said.
"Trust my wife's bullock to take me out. I'll be giving bullocks a wide berth in future," he added.
The BBC stressed the presenter's stay in hospital was just a precaution, and is not unusual for a patient suffering concussion.
He is recovering well and should return home shortly.
Dimbleby has chaired Question Time since January 1994. He is expected to be back hosting the show next week.

Pleased with that, whatever you think of Nick Griffin, Dimblebeys treatment of him as an impartial host was a disgrace that night.

Be good to give someone else a go
