    Accident statistics - Melton not a safe place to live

    Melton is revealed as accidental death capital of England

    The home of the pork pie is hiding a dark secret. Despite its rural charm and world-famous food, Melton has been revealed to be the unluckiest place to live in England.

    The borough in Leicestershire, where Melton Mowbray pies have been produced since the 19th century, has the highest concentration of accidental death, according to figures out today.
    Melton also had the most number of years of life lost annually, at 95.6 per 10,000 people compared with 10 per 10,000 in Surrey Heath.

    Residents were baffled by the high death rates. "Nothing much really goes on here apart from pork pies and Stilton cheese," said Malise Graham
    Is it the combination of cheese and pies?
    Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.

      Sounds like the village in Hot Fuzz, probably the local neighbourhood watch enthusiasts.
      Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

        Based on the last time I went to Melton, I would have expected it to be the suicide capital of England. What a dump!

          You mean it's worse than Swindon?

            It's only the pork pies that keep them going
