Edmonds left Radio 1 in March 1983,^[1] although he briefly returned in 1985, sitting in for Mike Read for two weeks on the breakfast show and again in 1992, where he presented a special show celebrating Radio 1's 25th birthday.^{[citation needed]} To meet Wikipedias quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup because: A trick photograph of Mike Read Mike Read (1 March 1951 is a British disc jockey, writer and former television presenter. ...

Television career

Edmonds hosted Top of the Pops at various points between 1970 and 1978. He also hosted the children's Saturday morning programme, Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, which ran from 1976 until 1982. During Swap Shop's run, Edmonds had his first brushes with Saturday evening TV, presenting "Lucky Numbers" – a phone-in quiz show which required viewers to call in and answer questions based on clips of film shown – and a revival of the 1960s pop music show Juke Box Jury. Top of the Pops, also known as TOTP, was a long-running British music chart television programme, made and broadcast by the BBC. It was originally shown each week, mostly on BBC One, from 1 January 1964 to 30 July 2006. ...

Edmonds returned to television with The Noel Edmonds Saturday Roadshow in 1988. The Saturday Roadshow in time morphed into the seminal Noel's House Party in 1991. This latter series ran for eight years from Edmonds' supposed mansion in the fictional town of Crinkley Bottom. Regular features included NTV, where cameras were secretly hidden in viewer's homes, and the "Gotchas" where celebrities were caught in elaborate and embarrassing setups. When then-Radio 1 DJ Dave Lee Travis was "Gotcha'd", he infamously yelled "Edmonds, you are a dead man!". He later participated in Noel himself being "Gotcha'd".

Edmonds also presented the quiz show Telly Addicts and was one of the original presenters of the BBC's motoring show Top Gear during the 1970s. During his time on the show, he rubbished the Fiat Strada, saying it wasn't very good, which caused Fiat to threaten to sue the BBC unless he apologised for the comments.^{[citation needed]} Edmonds reappeared in one episode in the 1990s, to road test the classic 1960s Ford GT40 supercar, because current host Jeremy Clarkson at 6ft 5 inches was unable to fit in the cockpit.

Edmonds once notoriously responded badly to his involvement in an episode of the Chris Morris spoof documentary series Brass Eye, in which he unwittingly pledged his allegiance on camera to a campaign to rid the country of a new killer drug, the entirely fictitious 'cake', which apparently made 10 seconds appear as a few hours to a user. His protestations after the broadcast of the show resulted in a follow-up sketch in which a fake news bulletin reported that Noel Edmonds had gone mad and killed presenter Clive Anderson during a dinner party, in which he held the rest of the guests hostage.

Theme parks

Edmonds-licensed theme park attractions based on Crinkley Bottom and Mr Blobby were set up in existing parks at Cricket St Thomas in Somerset and Pleasurewood Hills Theme Park in Suffolk. A all new park was also built in Morecambe. Following disappointing visitor numbers, and in the case of Morecambe, legal disputes with the local council, the deal was scrapped. The two existing parks reverted back to their previous state but the all-new park in Morecambe was closed, only a few months after opening. He was critical of Lancaster City Council's management of the Morecambe park.^[20] A report by the District Auditor found that the council had behaved 'unlawfully' in its dealings with Edmonds, which cost £2.5m, and two former senior officers were found to have committed 'misconduct' although this was not deemed to be 'wilful'.^[21] The affair was dubbed 'Blobbygate' by the media.^[22] Theme Park is a simulation computer game designed by Bullfrog Productions, released in 1994, in which the player designs and operates an amusement park. ...

Personal life

The couple bought an 855-acre estate at Jacobstowe, near Teignmouth, as a family home.

After his second divorce, he took time out to stabilise his relationship with his daughters,^{[citation needed]} before starting a relationship with Marjan Simmons, a French estate agent. They dated for a year until summer 2006. Simmons later went to the press, telling how she was left heart-broken after he dumped her, claiming she felt "discarded" by him after he battled back to the top of showbiz.^[24]

It was reported that Noel was involved with English teacher and former Miss England Pauline Bull, who lives in Monaco close to his three million pound home in Magagnosc, near Grasse in the South of France.^[25] However, Edmonds has recently stated that he is not ready to get seriously involved in a relationship so soon after his second divorce.^[24] 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. In an interview with Good Housekeeping magazine, Edmonds stated that his quiet mansion house had a whole room dedicated to his huge collection of silk shirts which he wears on Deal Or No Deal.
