Talk:Terry Nutkins

message: "Aside from an occasional TV appearance, Nutkins has largely retired from the public eye and spends his time divided between his family in Scarborough, England, and a quest to save the Monteray Speel in Southern Australia. With three children and a six-bedroomed mansion in Colombia to while away any spare time, Nutkins is certainly enjoying life. Recent rumours of a collaboration with Middlesbrough born chemist and fellow of Pembroke College Cambridge Martin Derewyn Smith on methods of further protection for the Monteray Speel are not yet confirmed."
I realise that Google does not know everything. But I can't find any hits on "Terry Nutkins Scarborough", "Terry Nutkins Colombia" or, more worryingly, "Terry Nutkins Monteray Speel". In fact, of the 14 hits for "Monteray Speel" itself, one is Wikipedia's VfD discussion, and it's not reassuring. 
I have removed the entire paragraph to this talk page until some sources are available.

replies: text: Yeah, I had noticed the cress duck thing and was suspicious enough to be planning to ask a friend who is likely to know. That would have been today. But if it's gone now, that's nice and easy. Thanks. Telsa 07:54, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: To spoil the fun it was Tony Soper another 'Animal Magic' presenter who Jet Skied, like Nutkins Soper would appear on 'Blue Peter' and he did so in a segment with Peter Duncan back when Jet Skis were a novelty in the UK. It seems that many people confused Soper and Nutkins in their memory and so the myth became that it was Nutkins riding a Jet Ski on 'Blue Peter'  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.4.142.102 (talk) 16:53, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
