Sweet Jesus on a Helter-Skelter!
Is this the SBD/Coops version of "Mysterious Stranger" with a simulated gold plated ping-pong ball buried under a potted Bay tree somewhere, and Nobacherie being the key to its location?

-pops back in to see Hedge, Bender and SSJ sharing a joint- 
I suggested two acronyms on page 2 (albeit slightly silly ones) after Maid Marion had suggested that that might be what it is, so if genieb is the only one who was close, I don't think it can be an acronym.
Still, if it is, I'm ignoring the clues completely and having one last go - does it stand for: Nickname Of Brown's Assistant, Dear?
Personally, I think we're being toyed with...
-wanders away, disinterestedly, again-

H - handles
E - embezzlement |
Like your thinking, Spasm!
Sir Big Dave seems to have confirmed that it is some kind of acronym, but then again the London Eye comment couldn't relate to that. Could it?

Maybe it's the clues from a cryptic crossword, and these were the answers they couldn't get, and the letters are the only letters they have in the words.

I know it's already been ruled out but Nobacherie is also an anagram of 'Aerobic Hen'. Does Derren have Coops running about like a headless chicken?

Derren, Darren, Duran Duran, Scoops, Big Dean, wrong, wrong WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok, we have 3 words that are spelled wrong (hence the 3 x "wrong") in the above phrase. if you take out the incorrect letters, then you get
dArren, Scoops, SIR big dEaNve. since the 3rd "wrong" is in caps, hence emphasis, then if you take out the wrong spellings from the 3rd word only you get the exciting word: SIREN. . .
NEXT? |

There was actually some method in my madness last night
Derren, Darren, Duran Duran, Scoops, Big Dean, wrong, wrong WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!! = Never! = N
2 : MacMillan in the accounts department would lose his job over it = Overpayment = O
"Fascinating" Derren Brown = B
5 : A man's favourite foreign friend = Aide = A
4 : Carbon in its purest form = Diamond = Coops = C
1 : Nothing to do with knobs! = Handles = H
3 : Enrolment at a later stage would certainly mean an imminent sacrifice. = Early = E
2........."poor old concorde, he fly no more" = ????? rising = R
3.........Peter Piper Picked A Peck Of Numskull Ninja's = ?? Insane, Idiots, Incredible? = I
5........fish ans chips are great especially if you hapen to be in
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. = Easy = E
As for '.............top of the london eye, looking over buck house, the answer is there, nowt' to do with the scouse. ' Dunno, thats looking West and the sun rises in the East. Literally misdirection?
Can I have the G&T now please Spaz?
EDIT - this is all a wonderful example of how you can draw any meaning you like from source data ref the debate many moons ago on crackpot theories.

Never Overpayed, Brown's Aide, Coops Handles Rising Idiots Easily.
I'm still undecided if rising fits...

OK -
Nobacherie = Confidant/Bona fide .....
Or - the man with the good ideas
(swear I can prove these!!!!!! - albeit with tenuous links)
Who was it said that if you give a bunch of humans any word or sentence with a clue they'll automatically come up with an infinite number of answers?? In fact - that was also proven with monkeys, wasn't it?
Argh!
