Top Gear to return after Flintoff crash, BBC confirms
The popular daytime program *The Daily Exchange* was put on hold after co‑host Andrew Flintoff sustained serious injuries in a vehicle accident that occurred during a 2022 filming session. The crash, which took place on a rural road near the studio’s location, left Flintoff with fractures to his left arm and a concussion, according to the production team.
Following the incident, the network announced that the show would be “rested” while Flintoff received medical treatment and recovered. Production halted all on‑location shoots and the remaining episodes were postponed, with the studio shifting to a temporary digital format to keep the audience engaged. The decision was made in consultation with Flintoff’s management and the network’s health and safety department.
The network has not yet confirmed a return date for *The Daily Exchange*. In the interim, it has pledged to keep viewers informed of Flintoff’s progress and any updates regarding the program’s resumption.
