Noel Edmonds savours 'nutter status' as he unveils big plans on Kiwi Adventure
Noel Edmonds joked that he savoured "unique nutter status" as he unveiled grand plans to build an energy garden on his New Zealand estate. The Deal or No Deal presenter, 76, moved from the UK in 2018 and has bought a £15m estate called River Haven, which includes a pub named The Bugger Inn and a vineyard. His bid to create a thriving business has been documented in new ITV show Kiwi Adventure, and in the latest episode he revealed his idea of creating a special energy garden. He was confident about finding some "magic" stones with energy for the project, but admitted people thought that idea was "crazy". The episode that aired on Friday, 27 June saw Edmonds battling with the wet weather, with the star saying he was "haemorrhaging money" as rain kept punters from his pub. But when the clouds cleared, he and wife Liz visited a quarry to find the perfect rocks to start their garden. "Are there many people coming and acquiring rocks from you?" Edmonds asked the owner. "Because I always savour unique nutter status." The star said he was after "four magic ones". "It's all about energy," he said, after spotting one he was drawn to. "There are so many people who think you are crazy if you talk in this way about a rock having energy, being attracted to it, but they are the crazy ones. Because it has been known for thousands of years that we are energy beings." Read more: Noel Edmonds How Noel Edmonds went from TV's most famous host to rural life in New Zealand Noel Edmonds complains he is 'haemorrhaging money' on £15m New Zealand estate Noel Edmonds wants to challenge Jeremy Clarkson's Farm team "This thing about the energy, you have got to appreciate, we have all got to appreciate, that we are surrounded by this sort of invisible mist of energy," said the star. "One of the limitations of the human form is that we can't see it but yet your cat and your dog can see it." The episode also saw Edmonds end up taking an impromptu dip when his stepson pushed him off a boat into the river. The TV host had shared that he had toyed with the idea of offering rafting trips to guests and after he uncovered two rafts on the property, he and others from the estate decided to go out on them. At one point, Edmond questioned whether the rafts would speed up if there were less people in them, leading his stepson Harrison to creep up and push him into the water. He roared with laughter as he bobbed along in the river, before some of the team dragged him out. Chatting to wife Liz about his surprise swim, Edmonds joked that her first thought when she spotted that he wasn't in the boat was "life insurance". But she insisted: "It was, 'Oh God where is my husband?'" In another scene, Edmonds played the piano to the plants in his vineyard in a bid to help them grow. He told his team he'd read an old study that suggested that plants grew more if music was played to them. Having arranged for a truck to pull a piano through the fields, he sat down and tickled the ivories as his colleagues watched. The presenter was also reunited with Mr Blobby, who originally featured on his House Party show, when someone dressed up as the character for the estate's Halloween bash. "There is an assumption for some reason, that I go, 'Oh Blobby'," Edmonds said. "Actually I love the legacy of Blobby. The first reason is, it gave so much happiness. The other reason is, 'Cor I didn't half make a lot of money out of it'." Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure is available on ITVX.
