Noel Fielding’s Ghost Haunts Never Mind The Buzzcocks
THE trailers for BBC music panel show Never Mind the Buzzcocks features a person who looks not a lot unlike The Mighty Boosh’s Noel Fielding – the Noel Fielding of whom the Sun’s Gordon Smart wrote:
Noel Fielding has been axed as team captain on the next series of Never Mind The Buzzcocks. The Clown Prince had been signed up as a regular on the long-running BBC comedy panel show. But when details of his drug taking emerged over the weekend, Beeb top brass withdrew the offer - Gordon Smart (August 17, 2009)
Can Smart have got it wrong…again?
BBC Two’s irreverent pop quiz, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, returns to our screens this autumn with a brand new line-up. Joining the panel this year as team captain, alongside the ever repressible Phill Jupitus, is Mighty Boosh star Noel Fielding - BBC Press Release, September 14, 2009
Another Noel Fielding?

…more important than Never Mind The Buzzcocks?…..I doubt it….
Unless , of course, you mean the tory party conference, Karen…
….and then I am quite sure you are mistaken

Just what is the point of this ridiculous article anyway? Obviously-GASP-another journalist gets facts wrong and makes himself look like a twat in the process when it’s published. Noel Fielding doesn’t haunt NMTB, he IS alive and well and just as entertaining as ever on the show. Seriously, aren’t there more important topics and issues in the world to report on than this rubbish you print?

I like Noel Fielding. He’s not what you’d consider a hunk but there’s something about him.
I never heard anything about his drug taking but if they sacked every sleb who was taking them, there wouldn’t be many new programmes left to watch. We’d have even more repeats.

P.S….and more importantly…the right nose.

I like Noel Fielding…he is a more manly version of Russell Brand…the BBC would be fools to drop him for his drug taking….afterall, most of the Beebs productions are thought out & fuelled by narcotics and alcoholics…..are’nt they? …and if not then at least part of the huge salaries they pay their favorite slebs out of the licence fee fund nose candy narcissim….so rumour has it.
I wish the beeb would employ me….or at least invite me to one of their production parties….I believe I have the appropriate qualifications.
