"They're going to have to wheel me in… blitz everything for me as well [to drink rather than eat]. I love that show… I think it's made it [baking] quite cool. A lot of kids now are into baking.

He was also full of praise for his fellow stars and revealed how the group spent time with one another behind the scenes. He said: "Prue did flower arranging which was very popular – admitting, 'No, I didn't go.' Matt did a bingo night with all his voices, Noel did a night of music. I taught 25 of them how to use nunchucks – they were foam ones, they wouldn't hurt them!"
