According to reliable sources, A Hawk And A Hacksaw's Chris Hladowski (who plays bouzouki and clarinet in the band) had a sledging accident in the "treacherous" (© Sky TV) freezing conditions that have beset the UK over the festive period. Fortunately his injuries are not too severe (see picture), and he expects to lose "the weight" in four weeks. 

We wish Chris a speedy recovery.
