Tina C Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Did anyone see the chicken that was put on stage during the 'Top Gear' part of Comic Relief? I just happened to flick over from the news and thought aaaah, look, chickens get everywhere. Then I thought, oh poor thing. It did not seem too worried, but it must have been noisy, as a band was playing and I think it was put in front of the amp. I think it got removed before they turned a wind machine thing on to the band. At least I hope it did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I saw the poor thing - it looked very startled. I wonder if they received complaints? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted March 18, 2007 Author Share Posted March 18, 2007 I was wondering if I should complain or if I was being too sensitive as a soppy chicken owner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Same here Tina - and you might have got Clarkson at the end of the line! - scary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I ended up taking no notice of the performance at all as i was so worried about the chicken The poor thing must have at least had tinnitus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Top Gear and Chickens, I like both and thought the chicken might be scared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I saw that too and was worried about the hen - so was Ollie. Hammy's a chicken keeper so I'm sure he made sure it was removed before he put the wind machine on . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I was just as concerned as all of you - but decided to give them the benefit of the doubt. We only saw the hen for a little while. Both Clarkson and Hammond keep hens themselves, so I'm sure neither would have abused the poor young thing. I hope I'm right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I didn't think it looked distressed, more confused, and I'm guessing was only there for a very short time. I was a bit confused as there was no explanation while I was watching. Maybe it was Hammond, or Clarkson's hen? I hope it was removed before Clarkson played the drums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
