To a different type of agility.... and Courtney Lawes, who's been struggling with an ankle injury for the last three years, has told the BBC that an operation carried out during the summer break seems to have been a success.

He damaged his foot during a Six Nations game against Scotland and it's been troubling him ever since. Previous attempts to rectify the problem have not been completely successful.

Politicians in Northampton say workers should help tackle pollution by cycling or walking to work.

Northampton Borough Council's latest strategy, external to cut pollutants in the worst-affected parts of the borough stops short of a ban on high-emission vehicles.

But it says people should be encouraged to buy cleaner vehicles or find alternatives ways of getting to work.

I challenged a group of staff at Spacevac, external on the Rothersthorpe Industrial Estate to leave their cars in the garage this morning.  

Billy accepted the challenge and told me that his four-mile journey normally takes about 15 minutes by car but it took a "horrifying" 55 minutes on foot this morning.

Suzanne planned to get to work by bus, but discovered that it would have involved a 05:00 start and a three-hour journey on three different vehicles.

Ryan told me that he couldn't use a bus because he drove a company van to make deliveries, so it wasn't possible to use an alternative means of transport.

My experiment suggested that, for many people, the car is the only practical method of getting to work.
