Talk:Noel Edmonds/Archive 1

message: Have deleted the allegation that "Edmonds' image took a further blow when Garry Malley, a nine-year-old boy with special educational needs, was killed in a helicopter crash during a flight sponsored by Edmonds' charity, the Airborne Trust." The article referenced for this made no mention of Edmonds whatsoever. Edmonds had no involvement in the incident besides being charitable enough to be associated with the charity that organised the helicopter ride. The crash was due to overloading, something in the hands of the flight crew and event organisers; in what way could Noel Edmonds' character possible have been impuned? Unless you can find a reference which does raise questions about his involvement, I will not allow his - or anybody's - character to be tarnished and associated with the death of a child.

message: Does anyone else agree with me that Noel Edmonds was a complete embarrassment on his 2003 stint on Radio 2?  He was slow witted and doddering.  He recounted same anecdote about the tautological lyrics of Thin Lizzy song “Jailbreak” on several successive days!! Unisigned comment by User:80.177.124.44, who then blanked it

replies: text:  In view of the opprobrium in which he is apparently almost universally held, perhaps the picture of his head sticking out of the giant arse from the Friday Night Project would be the most appropriate? DavidFarmbrough 15:20, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Picture 

message: I've done some expansion over at The Late, Late Breakfast Show and in the course of that have confirmed from newspaper accounts that the accident happened on November 13th 1986, with the show's cancellation happening two days later on the 15th.  As such, I've removed the footnote dealing with the questionable dating. Vashti 07:44, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

message: "In the "May 2006 edition of "Q" Magazine (UK), Read was criticized by Edmonds as a "complete wanker".
<< Is this meant to be 2005 or do they release a few months early? -Posted Apr-2006
Edmonds' inerview in Q Magazine was only published recently, so 2006 is correct. It appears someone has altered it to the incorrect date of "2005" though. Pufnstuf 00:28, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know about the markings on Edmonds' hands and what they mean? Apparently some article said he was a member of something like a 'cosmic request system' or something. Does anyone know any more? Is it worth including? Magic Pickle 18:29, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That's associated with the Cosmic Ordering Service. Its purpose is explained in Deal or No Deal (UK) article. Bobo. 18:31, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

text: It mentions it, but very briefly. This surely has more relevance in the entry for Noel himself, as it is a spiritual belief of his, not directly related to Deal or No Deal, presumably. Do we know any more about this set of beliefs? Magic Pickle 23:55, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

text: He appeared on Jonathan Ross and talked briefly about it. Sounds very cult-like, much like Scientology to be perfectly honest. Definitely need more on this!chemaddict 22:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Read was criticised by Edmonds as a "complete wanker". It is hoped that they have now managed to overcome their diffferences
"It is hoped"? By whom? Noel Edmonds' mother? Over-sensitve fans of 1970s Radio 1 DJs? Emotional writing like this has no place in a Wiki article.  Pufnstuf 00:35, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I might have a copy of Q magazine somewhere which has an interview with Noel in it - he talks about the Mike Read thing, so I'll see if I can dig it up... --El Pollo Diablo (Talk) 10:59, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

message: "As a result of his success on Deal or No Deal, Edmonds has bought himself another Devonshire mansion to replace the one he split with ex-wife Helen, which is again on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park and has 35 Bedrooms."
Seems a bit far-fetched, where is the citation?!
