Liam Gallagher has revealed the thing that “freaked him out” after he purchased a mansion previously owned by Noel Edmonds.The former Oasis frontman was co-hosting Jo Whiley’s BBC Radio 2 programme last night (June 15), when he shared insight into something that he came across after purchasing the home.The topic arose when the singer-songwriter was asked about the last thing he spent money on, to which he responded: “Oh, it was probably the house in France.

I hate to be flash … It used to be Noel Edmonds’. Yeah, Mr Blobby was there knockin’ about.”Discussing what it was like purchasing the new residence, Gallagher explained that there was one thing that Edmonds offered to him that he had to refuse.“He had some blow-up doll called Sandra or something,” he said, adding that the television presenter used to drive around with it in a taxi.“I think they used to drive around — remember when all these celebrities sort of bought taxis?” he remarked. “He got one, but he used to put some, like, blow-up doll there dressed up, for some bizarre reason.”A post shared by BBC Radio 2 (@bbcradio2)According to the musician, ‘Sandra’ was dressed with a blonde wig, sunglasses and a baseball cap, and Edmonds asked if he’d like to keep the doll when he bought the house.“He wanted to know did I want it with the house,” he added. “I was like ‘Get it out. [It’s] freaking me out, man’.”It was first reported that Gallagher was purchasing Edmond’s home on the French Riviera back in March.
