Noel Edmonds' dummy friend

Noel Edmonds drives round in a London taxi, but has had problems because people won't believe he isn't a taxi driver. So he came up with a cunning plan:

"Noel's wife Liz came up with the idea of putting a shop mannequin dressed in real clothes on the back seat so it looks like there is always a passenger on board.

'And to make it more realistic she gave the giant doll a mobile phone constantly held to her ear! Now Noel hardly ever gets bothered - and he's delighted.'"

It's quite inspired. Although you'd have thought having Noel Edmonds in the driving seat would have been more off-putting than having a rubber lady in the back.

Or you could get in and make him and offer at the end of the fare - Deal or No Deal!

When I'm rich and famous, I'm gonna show just how quirky and special I am by driving an ambulance instead of a normal car. But to make sure people don't bother me, I'll have a real corpse loaded in the back.
