“No Harm No Fowl” is the follow up to the detective series "In Harm's Way". This time, in what some cynics have called an “obvious network ploy to revamp interest in an ageing format”, we see Harm paired with a psychic chicken to solve crimes in a sleepy German town. Whilst the pilot notably featured TV’s John Nettles, this turned out to be the high-light of a somewhat lacklustre follow up to a novel first series. Rumours of a big-screen adaptation were dashed when it emerged that method actor Al (Alan) Pacino (set to play Harm) refused to work with the Adam Sandler (“the chicken") unless Sandler continuously ate chicken until he actually became a chicken. Alan was caught shouting “you are what you eat” at Sandler whilst repeatedly ‘clucking’ at the comic veteran. “It was a step too far” commented director Christopher Nolan. “I don’t even like chicken” said Sandler, and added “he was very close to my face, and his breath was not so pleasant - like onions, or some sort of dip, garlic mayo maybe”.

The worst way to cope. People often self harm to focus on something physical rather then the mental pain they are experiencing. Some people think self harm is for attention but it's not. Nobody does self harm for attention, and nobody should be treated like they do. If you or somebody you know is self harming please get help.
Self Harm can also be abbreviated as SH
