Nick is a long-time singer with a silky voice who has even released his own album, Every Kind of People.
However, back when he started out on TV as the traffic reporter for the Meridian region, he was “Nicky Knowles, the man who knows his cones“.
That could explain why the character described themselves as the “OG TC” – or original traffic cone.
Footage from 1993 shows him telling viewers: “If you’re stuck in Cone City – that’s the Basingstoke ring road – it’s your own fault, you ought to know better by now.”
Other viewers suggested the diggers and workmen were a clue to his long history on DIY programmes.
And the final clue – “I made my money taking my top off” – could point to Nick’s often shirtless appearances on I’m A Celebrity.
