Why is it not recommended to use cast iron cook ware with a ceramic hob?
Aside from the obvious risk of dropping a heavy pan on it and breaking the glass, what could be the reason I have a lovely set of cast iron pans and I'd so like to use them.

The real caution is with the beautiful stove surface. Cast iron has the potential to have burrs or other irregularities that could cause major scratches on the ceramic surface of the stove. Inspect your cookware and try not to move it around when using it on the stove to avoid these issues.
If you are choosing cookware, stainless steel or another lighter metal might be a better choice.
Enjoy.

M$Why, because cast iron can scratch the top.
Some people use it very carefully (even don't slide on the top) and don't harm the top, but it is exactly a risk.
If you want to use it, anyway, you can buy a heat diffuser.
