    John Noakes Missing in Spain

    Former Blue Peter presenter John Noakes has been reported missing from his home in Majorca.

    Police began searching for the 81-year-old after his concerned wife Vicky appealed for information which could lead to his whereabouts. Officials in the town of Andratx, where the couple live, have also put an appeal on the town hall website with two photos.

    It is thought Mr Noakes may have gone for a walk early this morning.

    Ms Noakes is particularly worried for her husband's wellbeing as he suffers from Alzheimer's disease and today is the hottest day of the year on the island. A former agent told Sky News that authorities cannot confirm his status as a missing person until six hours has elapsed, which is expected to be at around 3pm local time (2pm in the UK).

    He was wearing blue shorts and a blue and white top when he went missing.
    An Andratx local police officer said: "We are searching for Mr Noakes in the village.

    "His wife reported him missing this morning. She is worried because of his state of health and the heat, which is around 35C (95F) today."

    Mr Noakes is best known for fronting the children's programme Blue Peter where he holds the record for the longest serving presenter. His attempts to keep the show's excitable pet dog Shep under control led to his memorable catchphrase "Get down, Shep!"

    I've invented a device that will find him.

    First take some sticky backed plastic and a cornflake packet.

    But just remember kids, don't try this at home unless there is a grown up around.

    On a serious note, I hope he is found safe and well, poor old fella.

    That only works if you tie it together with a pair of Vals soiled panties.

    He's made himself a portable aircon with fairy liquid bottles and coat hangers.

    John Noakes is found after going missing in Majorca - BBC News

    Perhaps he fancied another helicopter ride?

    He's got Alzheimers. He probably needs a qualified carer.

    3. How fucking cynical are you?



    The dutiful wife has sent her husband for his regular check up, and while he's at work, the doctor rings and says "I'm afraid there's been a mix up with his test results. All we know is your husband either has AIDS or Alzheimers".

    "What should I do?" says the wife.

    "Send him on a long walk", says the doctor, "and if he comes home, don't fuck him!".
