Hi Robin
 
I have the same problem and sort of fixed it.
Used duck tap on the inside of the tyre and put a tube in it.
In choosing the tube it is very important to get the valve coming out right, there is straight and bent valves options for the tubes, I chose the wrong one and if not for a cable tie it would disappear back into the rim.
 
Regards
Graham
