Nicholas Andrew Argyll "Nicky" Campbell, OBE (born Nicholas Lackey, 10 April 1961 in Edinburgh, Scotland) is a Scottish radio and television presenter and journalist.
From 1988 until 1996, Campbell presented the game show Wheel of Fortune and from 2001 until 2009 the consumer affairs programme Watchdog. Since 2011, he has co-hosted Long Lost Family with Davina McCall on ITV. He currently presents both the BBC Radio 5 Live breakfast programme and BBC One's Sunday morning show The Big Questions.
Campbell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and adopted at four days old. He was educated at the independent school Edinburgh Academy. His adoptive mother was a psychiatric social worker and his adoptive father a publisher of maps.
After graduating from the University of Aberdeen with a 2:1 in history, Campbell toyed with the idea of becoming an actor and got involved in commercial production for radio to gain his Equity card. At university, Campbell's best friend had been the actor Iain Glen. He worked at Northsound Radio in Aberdeen from 1981 to 1985, first as a jingle writer, before going on to host the breakfast show.
David Vaughan Icke (/aɪk/, born 29 April 1952) is an English writer, public speaker and former professional footballer and sports broadcaster. He promotes conspiracy theories about global politics and has written extensively about them.
Icke was a BBC television sports presenter and spokesman for the Green Party, when in 1990 a psychic told him that he was a healer who had been placed on Earth for a purpose, and that the spirit world was going to pass messages to him. In March 1991 he held a press conference to announce that he was a "Son of the Godhead" – a phrase he said later the media had misunderstood. He said that a subsequent appearance on BBC's Wogan changed his life, turning him from a respected household name into a public laughing stock.
He nevertheless continued to develop his ideas, and in four books published over seven years—The Robots' Rebellion (1994), And the Truth Shall Set You Free (1995), The Biggest Secret (1999), and Children of the Matrix (2001)—he set out a worldview that combined New-Age spiritualism with a denunciation of totalitarian trends in the modern world. At the heart of his theories lies the idea that a secret group of reptilian humanoids called the Babylonian Brotherhood (including George W. Bush, Queen Elizabeth II, Kris Kristofferson and Boxcar Willie) controls humanity, and that many prominent figures are reptilian. He further proposes that the Moon is an artificial construct—"probably a hollowed-out planetoid"—from which the reptilians broadcast an "artificial sense of self and the world" that humans mistakenly perceive as reality.

18 December 2012 Boat Race protester Trenton Oldfield said today that his six-month jail term was "political", that he had no regrets, and that he would do it again. In a bizarre and at times angry interview with BBC Radio Five Live Breakfast's Nicky Campbell, he said he swam into the paths of the crews in this year's race because it would only affect a limited number of people. It was a "profound and symbolic" protest, he said. But when repeatedly pressed to propose alternatives to the British political system, Oldfield snapped: "I'm not really f****** interested in this." Millions of television viewers watched Oldfield halt the annual race on the Thames between Oxford and Cambridge universities on April 7. He was found guilty at London's Isleworth Crown Court of causing a public nu...
