That's what I think too.
Is there a prize for realising it's bullshit?

I'm almost sure it's a contraction - genieb's post intimates that at the end (the bit with the nob element, and the french for darling).
But how's it fit in with the clues? Unless both the guys first clues relate to the same word, and so on and so forth.
'Not a bad cheater really' or 'Not a bad chap, really'?
I'm going back to the Secret Diary thread where it's safe...  _________________

References to stupidity and incompetence:
- Lousy spelling (LOTS of references)
- Poor sense of direction
- Needs explanations

*puts 50p the slot*
Deep breath....
ok, I haven't read all 27 pages so forgive me if I'm repeating what someone else has already suggested..
how about Nobacherie the BA being an acronym for an alternate P.A and then it simply reading No b.a. dear.
Now what could the b stand for...
OK this makes no sense..
Ok, how about Coops is afraid of heights and flying and so No B.A. dear..
= BA representing flying and the London Eye
or maybe it's BA as in BA Baracus..?
No? Ok...
noba, nova? New best friend?
Now, I see how addictive this is..  _________________ 'Love, the key that unlocks the bars of impossibility'

Are you sure that coops is not a WOMBAT* rather than a nobacherie (what ever that is)?

Am freaked out now. A while back I had a dream that I'd finally worked out that Nobacherie was a type of wombat. (I told a couple of you at the time - did one of you tell Perfiditty?!)
Of course I also dreamed it was Spanish for 'Care Bear'.
I don't suppose it is, is it? _________________ Gold Medallist in Hedge's Quiz Night  |

I wonder if a TV researcher will one day come across this word and we will end with this...
Ding! "And the next word is... Nobacherie. Sandy?"

Probably already been suggested about 20 pages ago,but is it that Coops isn't a general dogsbody.

He hasn't bothered, 'cause I got it right with 'Not a Bad Chap, Really'! Or maybe 'Not a Broad Chap, Really'! (he's quite slight isn't he!)
Either that, or Coops is a bit pissed off that I put him in my story and has told Dave to sod the clue for today...  _________________

Scene: an abandoned hospital in London
Date: 27th February 2025
A group of impressionable young students huddle together for warmth as they wait for the arrival of the famed Psychic Illusionist Derren Brown.
Derren enters the room dressed in his trademark spangling pink lurex tutu, beams engagingly at the camera and turns to address the students.
*lights dim*
"Tonight my friends we are going to conduct a special seance.
"In this very place, exactly 20 years ago, a group of my strangest fans committed collective and painful suicide driving nails up each others' nostrils with planks of plywood. They left no note, only a strange, meaningless word scribbled in blood on the wall and a voodoo doll made of wire and bandages with the mysterious letters SBD carved into its chest.
"Ever since, their tortured souls have roamed the site; terrified visitors report hearing agonised moans of 'Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrennnnnnnn I have noooooooooooooooooo liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiife Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrennnnn' over the frenetic sound of rattling keyboards.
"I was particularly and deeply affected by the news of this tragedy because it coincided with the mysterious disappearance of my trusted PA Coops on his way to pick me up from Victoria Station.
"Look at the selection of photos of my fans and pick out the one that most appeals to you; you are going to help me contact that person.
"Ah, I remember them all so vividly - their wit, their sense of humour, their obsessive interest in my footwear and facial hair......................
"Sod it. Anyone fancy doing an exorcism instead?" _________________ Har De en Ridespisk at laane mig?
