How does Sunday start? I wake up at 7.30am to take the dogs for a walk. Then I’ll have breakfast, read the papers, and creep out of the house while my wife is still in bed for my Radio 2 show.

What’s on your Sunday morning menu? I’ll have berries, yogurt and muesli – for energy. Then copious amounts of tea.

Are you ever recovering from Saturday night? It’s happened and I’ve paid the price. I’ve done a hungover show before and vowed to never do it again. The last time was after the last night of Chess, when I got in drunk at 4am and realised I still had to do the show.

How have you coped with lockdown? We went into the March lockdown on the first day of rehearsals for Hairspray, so that was knocked on the head immediately. Two weeks later I went down with Covid. I missed the radio show for a fortnight, but went back into the studio to do it live as soon as I could, albeit in an isolated way.

How do afternoons unfold? I drive home after the show, have a kip on the sofa, a snack, put the roast in, then take the dogs for a walk.

Does alcohol appear? Not at the moment. There was so much during lockdown that I did Stoptober and I’ve knocked it on the head until Christmas. During lockdown I discovered flavoured gin. Then a nice bottle of Medoc with the roast, before collapsing in front of Antiques Roadshow.

Any other cultural pursuits? I do read a lot, but my tastes aren’t particularly highbrow. I love a serial killer. You can’t go wrong with a serial killer.

Does social media feature? I’m a lurker rather than a participator and I remind myself that the trolls are just people sitting in their pants with nothing going on in their lives.
