By James Tapper Last updated at 6:28 PM on 30th August 2009 Comments (282) Add to My Stories Comedian Stewart Lee has launched an extraordinary attack on Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond, saying he wishes he had been ‘decapitated’ in the high-speed crash that nearly cost him his life. The 41-year-old comedian, star of BBC2’s critically acclaimed Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, accuses Hammond and his Top Gear colleagues of being ‘bullies’ and jokes about the car crash that left Hammond suffering brain damage. Lee was at the same school as Hammond – he was two years ahead of the presenter – though the source of the animosity remains unclear.
