    This is very interesting stuff from a man who has enough experience in radio to back up his words



    http://radiotoday.co.uk/2015/08/noel-edmonds-close-irrelevant-bbc-radio-3/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+radiotoday+%28Radio+Today+-+News%29

    BBC Radio 3 is too elitist and irrelevant and should be closed, former BBC Radio 1 presenter Noel Edmonds has said.


    Speaking to Alex Belfield, Noel says Classic FM do a good job (instead), along with one of his own new Positively Happy radio stations. Noel said last year he wants to buy the BBC, and cut it down. He says BBC local radio isn’t worth £112m a year, and the Gaelic services are also insane.


    Two very good music radio stations are enough, but Radio 3? “Forget it” he said. During the chat he also said there is a very strong argument that broadcasting is on the way out, and that all of the commercial stations in the uk are struggling “they are finding it very difficult to get ad revenue,” he said.


    Noel also sung praises for BBC Radio 2 presenter Chris Evans, saying he was a big fan of his and he hopes it works out for him, taking on all the jobs.


    Noel says he will launch 400 radio channels, based on positivelyhappy.com

    He's probably just requested all this through his orbs and the Cosmic Ordering Service (book/system) he plagiarised* wrote.

    *1 The Celestine Prophecy

    *2 Cosmic Ordering Service, aka 'Law of Attraction' Michelle Knight, Barbel Mohr etc...


    Don't get me wrong, think he's a great genuine positive chap. Maybe the UK's (more practical and on-shore) version of Tony Quinn that was around in the 80's. His lucky box TV show hasn't been re-commissioned as yet, so maybe a part-takeover of the 'soon to be' de-funded BBC could be on the angel cards...

    He wants to buy the BBC but he refuses to pay a TV licence.

    The setting up a radio station is fair enough but buying the bbc ? I presuming the second part is a joke.

    Just read he's planning to save the world from Electrosmog

    'Veteran presenter says electrosmog is bigger problem than Ebola or Aids'.

    To be fair wouldn't recommend carrying a 2.4ghz (microwave) mobile phone in your pocket all day, might cook all your jingly bits.
    Sounds like he's on the 10% commission-based sales team for a new £2,000 EMPpad (yoga mat), mentioned in that article, that offers pulsed electro-magnetism.

    Thankfully a basic wired grounding rod, placed in your garden would do the same thing for about 10 dolla'
    i.e. Recalibrate blood cells, readjust the electro-magnetism in your body and all that jazz.
