"Dave Hughes has revealed that he is considering suing Stonnington Council after falling into a hole while out running. The Australian comedian, who is best known as a presenter on current affairs show The 7pm Project alongside Carrie Bickmore and Charlie Pickering, said that the unconcealed hole in Chapel Street in South Yarra is &amp;quot;dangerous&amp;quot; and he is in shock that it has not been covered up. After being photographed by the hole, Hughes told listeners on his radio show: &amp;quot;I fell into this at 2pm yesterday afternoon in bright sunlight. There [were] about 30 witnesses around me and I yelled, &amp;#039;This is dangerous&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;I staggered off and I cannot believe nothing has been done. This hole is still there, there&amp;#039;s no tape around it. It is in the middle of the footpath, the most dangerous hole I&amp;#039;ve ever seen.&amp;quot; A councillor from the local authority called Hughes on his show and said that the hole needed to be reported in order to be filled, but added that a 24-hour response team would make it their priority. Hughes&amp;#039;s The 7pm Project was recently extended by Channel Ten and will be renamed The Project after George Negus&amp;#039;s current affairs programme at 6.30pm was axed. Negus was labelled &amp;quot;over-indulgent&amp;quot; and got poor viewing figures since the show debuted in January this year. &amp;gt; Dave Hughes: &amp;#039;I thought &amp;#039;The 7pm Project&amp;#039; would ruin my career&amp;#039; &amp;gt; Dave Hughes becomes dad for second time "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
