Default Hammonds Hearing aid.

So what's up with that thing.

You can see it in the last bits of the show when they talk about the Range Rover.

Its talk-back from the gallery/control room so that Richard can hear cues prompts etc from the director.

They are common in TV, Richard is the only memeber of the presenting team that wears one, but thats personal choice. The other two presenters are cued by the floor manager.

Anyone who say that was a hearing aid is very dumb.

First of all the close up shot from his ear showed no device in his ear.

They started making shit up about the dot he had in his ear but the technology hasn't been made yet to make something that little.

Also if it was that little then how come the thing on the back was so big?
You would think that they would make it very small.


That's the worst kind of bullshit I have ever read and people actually belive in it.
That says it all.


GWB is a idiot but there was no hearing aid.

Now back to topic.
