If Vine wasn't taking legal action I wouldn't even considering the image of Jeremy Vine hanging outside schools and trying to entice young children with his bike for his own gratification.

Attributing a noun before ‘nonce’ suggests he was just being offensive instead of throwing around the accusation. It's like Inbetweeners’ ‘bus ******’ Sticks and stones and all that.
