      The paper considers knots and links in \({\mathbb S}^3\) whose complements fibre over \({\mathbb S}^1\) and for which every vector field transverse to the fibres has closed flow lines of all possible knot and link types in \({\mathbb S}^3\). The main result of the paper is that many knots and links are of this type, including all fibred non--torus \(2\)--bridge knots. The paper closes with an interesting discussion of the open problem ``Is a fibred knot (or link) of Pseudo--Anosov type always universally fibred?''.
