Hugh Sykes
is of course, a legend. His work on PM is award-winning. We know from feedback on this blog and from our letters and emails that listeners greatly appreciate his work. His most recent reports from China have been widely praised. We are second to no-one in our appreciation of Hugh's work.
So you can imagine how much it saddens us to conclude that he's going off the rails. Is it overwork? Is it the Beijing smog? I mean, the incident in the gay bar was one thing, but a source in China has sent these photos of Hugh - these are genuine snaps - at work in the Olympic Media Centre.
Hugh, if you're reading this. GET HELP.

I don't think he's going off the rails. Surely he's just in training for returning to the happy PM office?

They are cautioning people and fining them in pro sports in the US for using gang hand signals like those.
Looks a bit like a hairless Jeremy Clarkson to me.

So that's what the inside of an A380 looks like. Interesting. Different.

Oh dear.
But I was SO pleased to be given that electric adapter.
So, thanks a LOT, Daniel Tetlow.
He was the producer on the China assignment.
And he took those pictures.
So it's his fault. Everything.

We understand, Hugh, we understand.
Time for a short rest, perhaps? ;)
