'I'm fine but furious'

Noel Fielding is recovering after being attacked in the street by three youths.

He says he is ‘fine, just slightly furious’ after the unprovoked incident yesterday.

The Boosh star Tweeted: ‘I hope the three chavs who just attacked me in the street for no reason don’t die in a horrific motorway pile up. That would be awful…’

But he said he was heartened by the sympathy he received from his Twitter followers. ‘Overwhelmed by all the Twitter love,’ he posted: ‘Me and my useless flamingo have constructed a glass pope-mobile to travel around in safely.’
