But you still, if I've like touched a bit of food, you won't, you can't go near it.

It feels slightly offensive.

When did you first meet?

So I was doing a show at Radio 1 and my boss was like, oh, we could do a thing where we get a guest host on every Saturday and we'll get them on for a month and then we'll get rid of them and we'll get a new person in and that'll just be quite a fun thing to do.

And I was like, yeah, that sounds great.

Who have you got?

And he said, well, we've got the first booking, Molly King, formerly of the Saturdays, just come out strictly.

And I was like...

You know, like, okay.

He was underwhelmed.

I remember her.

He was underwhelmed.

Yeah, yeah.

That one that gave me nothing.

We had met each other since because I interviewed quite a few times and always lovely, but I thought maybe... You sound like you're lying.

No.

I just thought, okay.

Anyway, Molly arrived for this meeting.

And I was expecting, I think I'd sort of projected this vision of someone who's going to be very guarded and very like, oh, I've got an image to maintain and who wasn't going to be that funny.

And Molly arrived and was the funniest, least guarded person I'd ever met.
