Concern is growing for the well-being of genial television celebrity, astro-physicist and all round good egg Professor Brian Cox due to his non-appearance on any television channel within the past 48hrs. The police have joined in the international hunt and requested all television studios carry out a thorough search of their premises, asking them to pay particular attention to 'dark places'.
Bernard Hogan-Howe, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police explained; "we're extremely worried - the last sighting of him was reported at CERN where he was seen running around in the Large Hadron Collider, chasing invisible particles, while pointing and shouting; there's one, there's another one. We also ask anyone who has LED lighting in their houses to join in the search as he has been known to get confused when confronted with low voltage twinkly lighting".
The BBC Director General Mark Thompson is also trying to coax out the errant Professor by arranging a news conference where he will announce the immediate return of television favourites; Stars In Their Eyes, Star Search, Stars on Sunday and All Star Celebrity Squares.
None of 'Coxy's' family were available for comment although Joanna Lumley did issue a statement; "It's an incredibly difficult time for us all obviously, but if the nation pulls together and wishes really hard I'm sure the simply devine Professor will return to our plasma television screens soon, I really do...he also needs to come back because it's my turn for the teeth.
