Chris Evans, who I now know, I didn't know then, was talking about me on Virgin Radio the whole time.

He invited me on TFI Friday.

I mean, he talked about me...

Like for the whole week.

Back when he was like that, the whole week, he said things like half the BBC are on drugs, which he didn't really mean.

But I was on his show recently.

I reminded him of that statement and he looked nervous.

And I was with Chris Moyles.

I was getting to know him, who wasn't even famous at the time.

And we're in this place called the Haverstock Arms.

Quite a show-busy pub at the time.

But then someone said to me, they're talking about you on Question Time.

And someone else went, Andrew, who ran it, who was the barman from TFI Friday, ran the real pub and he went, let's put it on.

So we put it on and the whole pub stopped and watched Question Time.

And every time someone made a comment in my favour, the pub applauded.

And every time someone said a comment against me, the pub booed.

So John Redwood said I should go to prison.

And the whole pub went, ooh!

So it actually became quite a weird, cartoony, surreal experience.

Yeah, you're doing it right, exactly, yeah.
