Craig in the wars on Bond set

Troubles on the set of the new James Bond film 'Quantum Of Solace' have continued with some outlets reporting that leading man Daniel Craig has sliced off a fingertip.
Assessments of the severity of the injury vary, with other sources claiming that Craig had merely suffered a severe cut to the top of a finger.
The shoot has already been hit by three on set accidents, including one which left a stuntman in critical condition. The stuntman was hospitalised during shooting in Italy after a crash in an Alfa Romeo. Prior to that, a second stuntman had driven a car into a lake and escaped with minor injuries whille last week, Craig incurred his first injury, suffering a laceration to his face that required eight stitches. 
Daniel Elzer, a spokesman for producers Colombia, said the latest incident was 'minor'.
He told Reuters: "There was a minor incident on the set, and Daniel injured his hand, and in any situation like that it's usual procedure to seek medical attention. He did. He was back on the set within a matter of hours, and production wasn't delayed."
