|

My thoughts on the whole "Nobacherie" thing for what they are worth:
"Fascinating" may mean that this is a fascinating story although to fascinate also means to charm or allure.
"Concorde flying no more" has been established as "explain" (ex-plane), which refers to a something having to be explained.
You can see Victoria station from the top of the London Eye.
"Peter Piper and Numskull ninjas" refers to alliteration (repeated consonants) and there is a missing "B" in "numskulls". Does this mean we are looking for BB?
"Fish & Chips" may refer to a place (plaice?) - long shot, I know.
"Macmillan losing his job" could refer to the Profumo Affair or therefore any affair. He also said "You've never had it so good" at the time.
"Carbon in its purest form" could lead us to diamond (ring?) or even coal.
This is totally ridiculous but I'm going back to the thoughts of ages ago regarding the Beckhams, for gawd's sake...
Victoria .. BB (Brooklyn?) .. Affair .. Diamond ...
Gees, my head hurts. And how does all this fit into the actual word "Nobacherie"?! Arggggghhhh! I'm giving up on this.
Can anyone PM me with the answer as it's really getting to me now.  |

|
|
For post hypnotic suggestion a hypnotist can give you a rarely used or a made-up word to put yourself into a trance. I think That's where Derren got the idea for a made-up word from. I am assuming he inserted a nonsense word into the credits to see if a) people would notice and b) what 'conspiracy theories' they would come up with. Every now and then, when either interest is flagging or the theories are boring, we are given a clue or, someone says they have solved it but cannot reveal it for some scary reason or other! Perhaps Derren is leading us to come up with a specific theory - who knows? Anyhow here's mine.
Perhaps Nobacherie (I can't help but capitalise it) is the name of some minor demon, suggesting that Coops is a helper of the man himself - in this case Derren Brown - and obviously that means he is certainly no Messiah! I know there is a demon called - of all things Persil - so, Nobacherie could conceivably be one too! There was quite a scandal about Lever Brothers use of stars and moons on their logo - what were seen as unholy symbols - by the fundmentalist Christian movement in the USA, eventually Lever had to discontinue its use. However no-one noticed that Persil is a demon!
My favourite anagram is, I be Acheron - Acheron is the 'river of woe', one of the 5 rivers leading to Hades.

Woah, that's very bright, maggiehl. I can barely see it against my background.

Well, Derren didn't actually make the word up, Coops did, as a prank...

*clutches desperately at straws* |
Remember when a magazine (was it 'FHM', perhaps, or 'Maxim', or 'Loaded', or...) projected an image of Gail Porter onto the Houses of Parliament?
No reason for mentioning this. Nope, none at all.
(You could probably uses a smaller projector on the Cambridge Theatre, but you'd need to power it in some way).
Move along. Nothing to see.
