Rick presented T4 with Nick for four years and then hosted Tool Academy on E4. He can now be found waking up the nation on the BBC Radio 5 Live breakfast show with Rachel Burden.

In 2011, she was selected for the BBC Writers Academy, where she trained to write for programmes such as EastEnders, Casualty, Holby City and Doctors. Emer has been writing and starring in Karen Pirie, a detective drama on ITV and starring in The Curse which you can find on All4.


Angela prepares a succulent, five-spice duck dish with stir fried cucumber and cashews for her guests and Nick pours a delicious Cave de Turckheim Gewurztraminer. Our foursome tackle many topics of conversation including sharing meals at restaurants, interviewing Hollywood stars like Julia Roberts and Mariah Carey and how Rick and Emer fell in love, at a bus stop.
