Noel Edmonds was a popular light entertainer who appeared on many British television programmes, the most famous of which was probably Noel's House Party (1991-99). Although still active in the 21st century, the height of his popularity may well have been from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s. He was the host of several segments included on Doctor Who DVDs. Many of the cast members of the Tom Baker and Davison eras appeared on his shows — most particularly the Saturday morning phone-in programme Multi-Coloured Swap Shop (1976-1982).
