Noel Edmonds is accustomed to being attacked every time he expresses an opinion on…well, just about anything.
Just a few weeks ago, he came in for a lot of flak for comments attacking the BBC – while dressed as a woman.

Noel has gone in hard on his claims for the device’s supposed abilities and merits.

The rest of the reaction to his claims comprises anger and mockery. Mostly mockery.
