    Default Whilst attention has been diverted

    by the current terrorist threat, another, much more insidious and palpably dangerous occurence has slipped under the wire.....

    Noel Edmonds to return to BBC One

    It is 12 years since Edmonds presented the first Lottery draw
    Presenter Noel Edmonds is to return to BBC One for the first time in seven years for National Lottery Day.

    Edmonds presented the first ever National Lottery in 1994, and in September will host a one-off live show highlighting Lottery good causes.

    Edmonds' last BBC series was Noel's House Party, which ended in 1999. But he has seen immense recent success with Deal Or No Deal on Channel 4.

    "It is great to have him back," said BBC One controller Peter Fincham.
    Oh dear god no....it's the anti-christ I telz ya...[in the voice of Pvt. Frazer]...we're all doomed.....
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    "The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."

    Good God almighty. 7 years? His antics have scarred me so much it seems much shorter. At least it is only the Lottery...

    One more thing to add to my list of reasons why I don't have a TV...

    Maybe NOW the officious zealots at TV licensing department will actually believe it IS possible to live without the one-eyed monster and stop sending me all the nasty letters about "get a licence or we'll get you"

    When you look at the current crap on offer on the beeb, Noel Edmonds starts to seem ok 'ish again... which would have been hard to believe a few years ago.
