Jeremy Clarkson was rushed to hospital this week. The journey took longer than usual as the three paramedics insisted on building the ambulance in his kitchen, then travelling via a rope bridge over a swollen river in India.
The procedure took three hours; 30 minutes to fit the stent, and 2 ½ to actually locate a heart.
The hospital authorities say he is doing well and sitting up in bed, enjoying the hospital food, after punching the nurse that brought it to him.
