Balloon stunt banned

THE BBC has played down reports that a promotional stunt featuring Belfast DJ Colin Murray is too dangerous. The video, to plug Murray’s new evening show on Radio One, showed the presenter being released skywards attached to around 500 helium balloons. But, according to reports, the BBC decided not to show the video in the aftermath of Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond’s 300mph crash in a jet-powered car. Belfast Telegraph 6/12/06.
