VSBfromH 74 Posted September 29, 2006 Edmonds confesses to '186mph drive' He's obviously seen the positive press that "The Hamster" has been getting since his crash, and is thinking "hmm, as a fellow pint-sized celebrity I could do with a piece of that!" However, I note that it says he is "under fire" for making the statement. Why? Do they think kids might try to emulate him? This is Noel Edmonds for Chrissake, not 50 Cent!!! "A self-confessed car lover Edmonds also told readers that he had sex in a Range Rover, adding: "You can't say you love cars if you haven't ever made love in one."

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted September 29, 2006 It's either that you can't afford cars big enough to shag in or you're too big to shag in the cars you can afford. Edmonds, all five foot and a little bit of him, could probably manage it in a VW Beetle assuming he could find someone desperate enough to share it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted September 29, 2006 Richard Hammond is - apparantly - reading a book. Mebbe it's Influx by JC Jones. I hear it's great. Plannin' on readin' it meself one day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted October 1, 2006 Been searching cyberspace in vain for the footage we all want to see. I know it was forwarded to accident investigators but does anyone else know if owt has - like - been secreted away and sold on for a few sheckles. I mean, now his making a miraculous recovery and that, it's not sick to want a look, like, eh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he makes a good recovery it should appear on Top Gear with the lads slapping their thighs and roaring. But that won't seem quite the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted October 1, 2006 I thought originally it might be safe because the BBC pay better than other organisations for support staff on television and also the accident enquiry has snagged the film. However, given the press coverage since the accident suggesting some of those filming Top Gear and others behind the scenes had serious safety worries it did strike me as possible that there'd be a leak, if only to shame the bosses into tightening up. I'm guessing that a few of the camera operators, stuck in the rain on fairly low money, probably worry about an out of control car hitting them enough to leak some footage that shows the presenters in a poor light.

A BBC camera operator on "fairly low money" no such thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Influx, Big bucks? Talk about JC Jones. Might soon be a big money making man. He should write horror books, Stephen King will soon be out of sight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted October 2, 2006 The fairly low money thing is relative I'll admit Tempus, ask a guy at Border TV in Carlisle and they'd laugh at BBC complaints. On the other hand, you seldom meet a cameraperson who thinks they're paid well enough for the contribution they make. I think it's summat to do with hanging out with the likes of Clarkson and Hammon who command colassal cash comparitively speaking. Re Influx, it's a hell of start. I hope JC churns out some more.
