Noel previously admitted he still doesn’t like the idea of ​​videos for his songs, saying he hates them ‘with a passion’.

But luckily, it seems like he’s become a bit of an expert at enlisting the help of his famous friends, which means he only has to appear for a few minutes.

In 2021, The High Flying Birds frontman explained how The Crown and Doctor Who star Matt came to be in his We’re On Our Way Now video.

Noel told Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt Rockonteurs podcast: ‘I hate videos. I hate them with a passion.

‘I hate that they cost money. And I have to walk around in the rain all day with a director.’

He then explained that instead of having to make the entire video himself, he will tell his friends Scully and Dan, “I say, ‘This is all I can afford, go do what you can and I’ll make it sit in it for ten hours. seconds.” If I can, I’ll blame some other famous person to play in that for me.”

When his good friend Matt appeared, he added: ‘One night he was at our house and when he left at 4am I said, “Hey mate, you don’t feel like being in a video play, huh?” He said “yes, no problem”. And I kind of held him to that.”

Noel admits he doesn’t really know what’s going on in the video, adding: ‘The second video follows this one, so he (Matt) is in the next one too.’

The outing comes after Noel finally broke his silence on his divorce from ex-wife Sara McDonald, a year after the couple broke up.

The musician, 56, who reportedly paid the mother of his children £20million plus their £8million mansion in the settlement, said he wanted to cycle past the expensive property and shout: ‘You didn’t get this (bike) from me taken away! ‘.

Noel confirmed the end of his 12-year marriage to publicist Sara, with whom he shares sons Donovan, 16, and Sonny, 14, in January 2023, blaming the pandemic and COVID lockdowns for putting the strain of their relationship.

Now speaking further Matt Morgan’s Patreon podcast he joked about his new life as a single man in London: ‘I can get on my bike and go to King’s Cross, and go to the canal at Longfield Road,’

‘And go out onto the canal in front of my wonderful ex-wife’s house, wave at her and say, “You didn’t take this away from me!”.

Before adding: ‘But the pace of London is bloody amazing at the moment, I’m loving it.’

Noel also lifted the lid on living in a £2,500-a-night suite at swanky Claridge’s hotel for a year following the break-up of his marriage, after sources claimed he ‘said goodbye through the pain’.

He told friend Matt: “I had some really good times there – it was a really good time. I lived there most of the last year, I was there three or four nights a week.”

Noel, who reportedly has a net worth of £57million, was staying in luxury as he waited for the renovation of his new flat in nearby Maida Vale, which he confirmed he had now moved into.
