Edmonds claimed that he had stopped payment on his TV licence in early 2008, in response to the sometimes controversial methods used to enforce collection of the licence. Edmonds declared that it is wrong to "threaten" and "badger" people, in response to the collection authority's common assumption that the non-possession of a licence can mean licence avoidance, as well as the large fines which can be used as enforcement for non-payment. This is the same Edmonds who, in his tv show "Noel's House Party" hosted a regular feature called "Grab a Grand", in which contestants had to stand inside a glass booth and grab at the tv license payers money as it rained down on them like confetti.
