Woolfe's wonky fingers have their uses

Sky1 controller Richard Woolfe has been in touch to inform Monkey that the incident that led to his fingers being injured was much more dramatic than originally thought. Thank goodness. Never one to shy away from a bit of drama, Woolfe tells Monkey that he was unusually attempting to perform some poolside DIY, which involved him climbing down an 8ft ladder to an underground pump room, when he slipped. Managing to grab hold of the hatch door to steady himself, it slammed down on his fingers, crushing them. Double ouch. Woolfe confirms that an operation to re-set the fingers went slightly awry when one of them turned out wonky. But he is looking on the bright side. "When I get cross with independent producers, I just have to show them my two fingers and I have a perfect 'V' sign," he says proudly.
