Rexyp - that was my original interpretation! 
The only solutions I keep getting are rude ones. E.g. how about nobacherie = Knob bashery = one handed typist.

Hehe.. Kind of the Kings chief food taster in a round about way. Can't quite type exactly what I mean. And as you say, it might be libelous and Derren trained to be a lawyer didn't he?!

Mybe it's 'No BA, Cherie'... Perhaps Coops has a bad attitude! Or maybe Derren doesn't like flying on a certain airline...

dave confessed earlier that he's no idea either. i'm going for "pixie" seen as i asked a broadcast engineer at work and he's not heard of it either. it could also mean "gopher" as in "hey coops, gopher this, gopher that" and i'll pay you in cheese. mmmmmmm cheese.

Coops: in charge of making sure nothing is revealed!! (in terms of magic/performance, that is!!!)

I think the likely hood of anyone guessing it is slim to none. It is obviously an in-joke (probably about Derren's reliance on Coops, Coops's incompetence, something that went wrong etc.). It would just be as likely as someone understanding the plywood or sock garters.

oooooooooookay. This is beginning to turn into a Noel Edmonds radio script (anyone remember him?)
a) the barnyard theory
cherie = dear (French)
When they go on location/tour they spot different animals to liven up the journey. Sir Big Dave looks for cows, Derren watches for bunny rabbits and Coops for sheep. But since Coops is driving and watching the road instead he always gets a crap score hence why they tease him "no baa, cherie!"
b) the convoluted theory
bach = dear (Welsh)
Like all the best PA's Coops listens attentively to his boss's rants and orders and then completely ignores them  . After two years, Derren with his razor sharp perception and keen psychological insight finally realised that when Coops patiently says "Yes, dear" he actually means "You must be bloody joking" i.e. "No, bach/cherie!".

I've been trying to think "outside the box" (don't you just love working for American companies?)
I have an idea. |

Well, the title "Nobacherie" has been thoroughly researched by the finest minds in the Forum.
It has been "Googled" and checked in various dictionaries. It has been checked for acronyms and anagrams.
I therefore conclude that it has NO definition. Just like Coops. With all that he does for DVB, there isn't a single title to cover it. And so "Nobacherie" (a word with no other definition) was invented - just for Mr (or Rev) Coops (depending on which thread you are reading)
What do we think? Could it hold water? (or possibly a pint?) |

 I've lost interest now that Dave has said that it's not rude.

Could be onto something there.
Along the lines of:
Nobacherie = quark?
