While giving his beautiful cream cat a snuggle, he revealed that he has been painting and decorating his living room, transforming it into a lovely shade of lilac. Chatting to the cat in the clip, Sid said: "What do you reckon to my painting? Are you impressed? Not really? I don't think it's that bad, look at it! That's what we've done so far. Not too bad."
