TELLY favourite Noel Edmonds has astonishingly called for a total BAN on immigrants coming to Britain.

In a controversial interview which will spark a fierce nationwide debate, he said: “I’m very straightforward on immigration. The bus is full.”

The star gave his hard-hitting views to the News of the World on the eve of his new political telly programme, Noel’s HQ, which tries to find solutions for what’s wrong with Britain.

TV Noel, 59—famous for Noel's House Party, which featured Mr Blobby, and Deal Or No Deal—went on: “Why should we have no more people in?

“We haven’t got enough energy, we haven’t got enough electricity, we haven’t got enough of a health service.

“We can all go down the pub and go, ‘Oh it’s terrible, all these immigrants.’ But what are we going to do in Britain to change this toxic culture if we don’t say, ‘Enough is enough.’

“If I was Prime Minister for a day the first thing I would do would be to close the border.

“Then we could work out how many people we’ve got here.

“Then you get people out who have committed crimes and you look at others who shouldn’t be here. Nobody knows how many people we’ve got here.”

Last year 600,000 came to the UK legally. Around 50,000 illegal immigrants are caught each year but nobody knows how many go undetected. The UK population is expected to rise from nearly 61million now to 77million within 50 years. Noel’s views are in line with a YouGov poll that shows 81 per cent of Labour and 89 per cent of Conservative voters want a substantial reduction in immigration.

The presenter insisted his views are not racist.

He explained: “Please be clear. I do not have an agenda that involves where people come from, the colour of their skin or what their religion is.

“But it is a fact that there is a finite number of people who can fit into a lift. This is an island and we have a situation now where we are going to run out of energy.”

Speaking about his worries of an energy crisis Noel, who is waging a campaign for a sensible Government policy on it, added: “My number one fear in the next two to three years is that people won’t be able to light or heat their homes.”

He said he doesn’t trust either Gordon Brown or David Cameron to make effective changes and said he would not vote at the next election. Noel said: “Who’s going to do something about it. Brown? Cameron? No. They’ve had their go, now it’s our turn.

“Cameron’s had every opportunity to represent to the public what he stands for and the big change he’s going to make.

“Ridiculous green taxes are just another way of prising money off people. “The best thing that could happen to this country is that if at the next election no one voted. We have to put the power back with the people.”

Next Noel turned his attention to the explosion in violent crime, insisting we need to build more PRISONS, overhaul the POLICE force and get KIDS with knives off the street.

He said: “I find it extraordinary that we live in millions of little prisons called our homes, with burglar alarms, when a relatively small number of people walk around free.

“If someone’s caught with a knife they need to get off the street straight away. We need to build bigger prisons.”

On the police, Noel said: “The police are not respected because of the way they behave.

“I’d reorganise the force so we don’t have people with stab vests walking into our homes to tell us they’re not interested that our car’s been stolen.”

Noel, who spends much of his time at his home in France, added: “I’d introduce something similar to the French system.

“You basically go back to having the village bobby working with the community.

“Then you have a police force outside of that which gets more involved in the day to day, light criminal offences.

“Then you have the serious police force. Now you don’t want to go near them. They don’t bother to ask you your name.”

Noel hopes his 90-minute live TV special tonight will help change the way society works.

He said: “No one-off event can change everything, but hopefully this will be regarded as an honest and determined step.”

TV Noel, 59—famous for Noel's House Party, which featured Mr Blobby, and Deal Or No Deal—went on: “Why should we have no more people in?

NOEL Edmonds tells me he has two “orbs” bouncing on his shoulders – and they contain the souls of his dead parents.

I look hard, but I can’t see them.

“Don’t you know about orbs?” he asks, seeing the reaction on my face. And then it dawns on me he’s being deadly serious.
This is, after all, the man who two years ago told the Sunday Mirror how he had got his life under control using Cosmic Ordering – asking the planets for help by writing a wish-list on a piece of paper.

“Orbs are little bundles of positive energy and they think they can move between 500 and 1,000 miles per hour,” Noel tells me with total sincerity. “They look like little round planets but they come in all shapes and sizes.”

Noel, 59, says he was introduced to the phenomenon by his 37-year-old girlfriend Liz Davies – the woman he has been dating for nearly two years.

And together, he says, they have picked up the presence of two balls that Noel believes are his late parents – Dudley, who died in 1990, and Lydia, who passed away in 2004.

“Conventional photography can’t pick them up but digital cameras can,” Noel says earnestly in what I’m starting to feel is a David Icke-style confession.

“My belief is that these are something to do with some form of spiritual energy. And possibly because I miss my parents like mad, I like to think they are them.

“I’ve got loads of photos of me at home with two orbs that visit me.

The two that I have are about the size of melons ( ). One sits on my arm and the other is usually in the back of the shot, sitting just over my right shoulder.

“They like very happy occasions and positive environments, so if you are a positive person you will undoubtedly have orbs around you.”

We were here to talk about Noel’s new Sky One TV show, Noel’s HQ – his attempt to get the public to fix what’s wrong with “Broken Britain”.

Noel is dressed in one of his trademark patterned shirts and he’s instantly recognisable by his thick bouffant hair. Sitting opposite him, it’s easy to feel you know this man. He has, after all, spent more than 30 years on the box. But I’m beginning to see a very different side to the former Telly Addicts host.

And our conversation turns surreal as Noel – who has an £80million fortune – continues to expand on his new field of interest.

“We are all made up of energy – we vibrate all the time,” he says.

“It’s inconceivable to me that when we die, that energy just disappears. That energy has to go somewhere.

“That’s what orbs are. I’m absolutely certain now that there is something else out there because I’ve got the proof.

“I had a very interesting evening at a house I was renting a while back. I was talking with friends about spiritualism and the subject of orbs came up. Someone got a camera out and started taking pictures. When I saw the images, I was like, ‘Hang on a minute that’s got to be dust or light’. I was fairly cynical but we took some more and the same orbs were there.”

Noel prefers to keep the pictures private, and he’s aware that many find his ideas hard to swallow. After all, he’s been here before with his Cosmic Ordering confession back in 2006.

But he’s not worried about how he’s perceived. “I’m a very tolerant person and I’m open to new ideas,” he says. “I’m not an evangelist. I don’t go round telling people, ‘You must try this’.

“But I don’t pour scorn on any idea either. It’s the same with the Cosmic Ordering. I’ve got a few nice little orders in at the moment.

I’ve got one in for a friend who would like to meet the man of her dreams. And another for a couple who had some difficult financial issues recently. I’m confident they will come true.” Noel has already credited Cosmic Ordering for bringing happiness back into his own life – in the form of current girlfriend Liz.

The couple met in 2006 on the set of his Channel 4 comeback series, Deal Or No Deal, when make-up artist Liz came in to get him ready to face the cameras.

The romance started three years after the end of his 18-year marriage to second wife Helen Soby –mother of his four daughters.

“I’m in love with the most beautiful woman on the planet, but there won’t be wedding bells any time soon,” he says. And with six children between them – Liz has two young sons from her own marriage – Noel insists they have no plans for a family of their own.

“I’m 59 and three-quarters,” he says.“I think that’s too old to be a father.”

Looking at him, it’s hard to believe but Noel – who divides his time between homes in Bath and the South of France – is just a few months short of getting his bus pass. Even so, I can’t help but wonder how the 20-year age gap affects their relationship. “If she dies, she dies,” he jokes.

It’s nearly 10 years since Noel quit the BBC and his hit series Noel’s House Party. And yesterday, in a bizarre rant on TV, he said he has stopped paying his licence fee. He claimed: “When I was at the BBC it promoted the licence fee by saying how wonderful it was. But now it is saying, ‘We know where you are’. “I am not going to have the BBC or any organisation threatening me.”

Noel is back at the top of his game, fronting a string of hit shows including Sky One’s Are You Smarter Than A Ten-Year-Old? But it’s tonight’s 90-minute one-off special, Noel’s HQ, that’s his main focus.

The show highlights pointless bureaucracy and health-and-safety jobsworths.

“We’ve got a section in the show called Bonkers Britain,” he says.

“Some of the cases are too stupid for words. Like everybody else, I go out every day now thinking, ‘I must be breaking the law’.” - [Surely you are Noel if you're not paying your TV license?]

GAMESHOW host Noel Edmonds has astonishingly called on a re-introduction of the death penalty in the United Kingdom. The last execution took place over 40 years ago in 1964, when Edmonds was a fresh-faced young radio DJ.

"I just think that standards are slipping in this country, and a bit of extra hanging is just what it needs to get back on track" says the Deal or No Deal star. "Not just for things like treason, but murder and piracy as well. You could even film them and broadcast them live on TV to teach other criminals a lesson."

"By the way, did I mention I've got a new TV show on Sky?"

I think the old man really has lost it now

For 30 years he was one the BBC’s star presenters, stitching up celebrities and subjecting guests on his show to the horrors of the gunge tank. But now Noel Edmonds himself could be in the line of fire, after he announced that he was leading a boycott of the television licence fee.

The former Noel’s House Party presenter, who accused the BBC of “hectoring and threatening” the public into paying the £139.50 annual charge, could be stripped of his ceremonial title of Deputy Lieutenant of Devon, after confessing to his criminality, The Times has learnt.

In an interview at the weekend, Edmonds declared that for four months he had refused to pay the licence fee, a legal requirement for anyone who owns a television, adding that he was prepared to be prosecuted for evading the tax.

Eric Dancer, Lord-Lieutenant of Devon, said yesterday that he would investigate whether Edmonds should lose his position, which carries the blessing of the Queen.

Edmonds assumed the title – which involves assisting the Lord-Lieutenant in arranging the monarch’s visits to Devon, leading the local magistracy and hearing grievances between citizens and tax officials – in 2004.

Mr Dancer told The Times: “If a deputy did do something that was a criminal offence, I’m sure that people who commit serious misdemeanours are not allowed to continue to serve.”

A TV Licensing spokesperson said: “Irrespective of Noel Edmonds’s personal opinion, the law is clear: anyone caught watching or recording TV programmes without a licence risks prosecution and a fine of up to £1,000.”

Noel’s HQ, screened last night on Sky One, was aimed at promoting a “fairer, more caring Britain”. Edmonds told viewers: “You clearly feel frustrated and at times angry at the tidal wave of new rules, regulations and laws that have been introduced in the name of health and safety, security or the environment. Well, the politicians have had their turn, and now it’s ours. It’s down to you, me and them, and to everyone who wants to live in a more caring society.”
