Poor ROB.

Unfortunately I can't scotch this rumour for you, but I did manage to find the thread referred to on the Channel 4 Forum.

It all seems too vague to me to have any fragment of truth behind it. The poster was asked where he/she heard this information and their reply was:

'It was on some showbiz round-up thing.......can't remember what it was called.......on one of the cable channels......'

Not good enough. If it was momentous enough news to post on a forum, then they surely could remember where they heard it.

Sorry I can't say for definite, ROB - but my gut feeling is that this is a nasty hoax. I have my fingers crossed, anyway.

Think positive thoughts!!
