The program 'sensors' is currently not installed.  You can install it by 
typing:
sudo apt-get install lm-sensors

So I removed lmsensors and did as requested above. 

sensors now works for me, which I've never had before, thanks:-
Core0 Temp:
             +22°C
Core0 Temp:
             +23°C
Core1 Temp:
             +27°C
Core1 Temp:
             +24°C

These might seem low, but I'm running an AMD dual core, energy efficient chip 
with the enormous OCZ copper conductor heat sink that's got a stack of big 
aluminium fins and a proper size fan on the side :-) It should run for ever.

+27°C agrees with what I saw in the BIOS last time I looked.
