00:00I was devastated.
00:01It's one of the most horrendous things that's ever happened to me.
00:03We'll do that a little bit later on.
00:05If VAR was a real thing in real life, what moment in your career would you overturn?
00:09There are a few moments maybe when I was a student that I...
00:13I'm just very glad actually that there were no camera phones back then.
00:16So thank God, there's no evidence of my misdemeanours.
00:21I've had a few that I don't return.
00:24What would I overturn in a career moment? That's a great question.
00:28If I could think one career moment, I probably would have done SES a little bit later on in life.
00:34I was quite young when I did that show.
00:36Yeah, we'll do that a little bit later on.
00:38Oh, that's a great question.
00:42I would go back to when I was favourite to win the Brit.
00:47I think it was 2012, 2013, Ben Howard won it and I was devastated.
00:51So if I could VAR it and go back, I would definitely love that moment again.
00:55Mine will win it but I thought that year was my year.
00:58Oh wow!
01:00Which moment in my career?
01:04Probably the moment on...
01:08Ha!
01:09Probably the moment on the jump when I was so cold and I was live on television
01:14and I introduced Kimberley White from the Pussycat Dolls as Kimberley White the Pussy Doll.
01:20And it's one of the most horrendous things that's ever happened to me.
01:23Luckily, she found it funny.
01:25It was freezing.
01:26It was freezing in Innsbruck.
01:28A certain Brazilian scoring a goal from the long way out.
01:31Ha!
01:31Ha!
01:32We won't mention names, eh?
01:34Ha!
01:36Really?
01:37I think this is quite simple.
01:40Thierry Henry.
01:41Ha!
01:42Handball against Ireland.
01:43Oh, that was...
01:44Anyway, let's not talk about that.
01:45No.
01:46I'm happy to be stood here talking to you.
01:49And that's because of what happened, so I can't complain.
01:51You were absolutely phenomenal.
01:53What was it like, then, to separate the Innsbruck?
01:56How's the atmosphere?
01:57Actually, actually, that's the point.
01:58That's the point.
01:59Maybe I could rewind Usain Bolt's goal at Old Trafford that year.
02:04That was a bad goal.
02:05What would they all return?
02:08Er...
02:08Scrap it.
