Q&A Nicole Waterman (Masterchef)



Have you ever devoured a whole catering pack of after eights in one sitting?
I can’t say I have, although I’m no stranger to polishing off an entire box of chocolates. I am only human after all.
Do aphrodisiacs work? 
I’m not sure chillies or chocolate have ever increased my sexual desires… personally i think it's all over hyped. You're either in the mood or your not!
If your other half ate an entire pack of rolos without offering you the last one, would you chin him?
I’d probably be a little miffed, but chinning the poor fellow may be overreacting slightly. Besides, I’m not a massive fan of rolos. On the other hand, if he guzzled my last glass of red wine I’d consider grievous bodily harm.
Have you ever been on a date and halfway through the meal they go to the toilet and never come back?
A few months back, I had a string of fairly disastrous dates; I considered doing this myself! There’s nothing worse than sitting through a horrific date.
Have you ever stood at the bar waiting for a drink, noticed an abandoned half eaten sausage swimming in baked beans on a plate beside you, waited a moment, then picked up the half eaten bean juice riddled sausage, stuck it in your mouth and swallowed it?
Ewwww, that’s disgusting! Although, I do love baked beans!
When you were at primary school, did you ever flush your prawn mayo sandwiches down the toilet, only for them to clog up the entire sanitary system? 
Prawn mayo sandwiches? Do you think my mum was made of money? It was peanut butter all the way for me. My brother and I used to eat the entire contents of our lunch-boxes on the walk to school. The naughty little rascals that we were!
What quote is this film from, 'I recommend the peanut butter soup… with smoked duck and mashed squash. New York Matinee called it “a playful but mysterious little dish.'
I'm blonde, let's leave it at that!
If you own a gravy boat, are you middle class?
Most definitely, I use my Pyrex measuring jug and hope that no one thinks I’m trampy!

Do you own an apron that has a picture of naked breasts on it? 
Why, is that middle class? No, in all honesty I don’t, but I've always wanted one! I imagine I’d look rather fetching!
Where can people read your recipes?

Q&A Phil Hepworth (The real life James Bond)


Have you ever done an Olly on a skateboard and simultaneously shat yourself?
That's an unusual one to start... Not even a 'Hello'... I have dabbled in the art of wood pushing, however, I gave up when Tony Hawk stole my signature '900'. Even though I had perfected in on the notorious ramps of Somersham. In answer to your initial question... No.
Does your girlfriend wax your eyebrows?
I'm afraid I'm a single pringle these days and the wax is kept purely for my legs.
So we can't talk about your job as a spy, but have you ever chinned a girl in a bid to obtain information from her relating to the disappearance of a Russian Satellite?
Well in the echo of the recent UKIP fiasco... Women don't belong in the work place, so a cheeky slap on the arse and nut to the face shouldn't have been an issue, but HR still strung me up by my balls about it. You will discover however my methods of interrogation are normally more subtle, usually involving water torture and cobras (not the popular lager).   
You play guitar and Snowboard too. Ever done both at the same time?
No that would be silly... Ukulele however yes.
Ever bought or worn women's clothes by accident?
I've worn women's clothing yes... however ...never by accident.   
You have a lustrous head of hair. Ever thought of doing hair modeling?
I actually have lol... My hairdresser entered a competition and used me and two others.
Where's the best place to eat in Cambridge and what would I wear?
Well I'm very partial to a Wagamammas (or however it's spelt). I would definitely recommend the Firecracker for both of us, THE most amazing dish I have ever eaten. You would wear something slutty so I could shout "YOU EYE-BALLIN' MY WOMEN BITCH?!" Proper Jesse from Breaking Bad style.

Do you find it impossible not to laugh when a young child face plants the pavement or runs into a glass door?
I managed the glass door one as a kid, since then the Grandparent's conservatory doors have had a strip of tape over each door.... Only yesterday I nearly wrote off a two year old throwing him onto a sofa not realising the arms were solid... With a loud 'THWAK' (Just like in old skool batman) he starts crying. However Dad rushes over tickles the crap out of him distracting the tears... Only to hear... "Again, Again" ... Kid's a beast. 
Look it's obvious you're a spy, ever had a fight on top of a train?
Yeah but some bitch with a sniper riffle shot me off it then I fell for like forever ...But wasn't dead and the film carried on... Wait... No that's Bond ain't it...
Anything you want to plug?
Errrr...Not overly ... Actually yeah, there is a shop in Ramsey called Taffin or something? Think Pierce Brosnan runs it... Good man.

Q&A Cambian (founder of Super Scratch Sunday)

Q&A Cambian (founder of Super Scratch Sunday)

Cambian - I search out & mix music made by other people. I also run Super Scratch Sundays. For free mixes & info - www.iamcambian.com
Was Soulwax right, Are there too many DJ's? 
Probably: Djing in the last few years or so has become a lot more affordable & accessible, which is no bad thing, don't get me wrong. But some of the technology has made things some what easier and so its inevitable certain people are happy to cut corners and not learn the craft properly. My flatmate often reminds me "everyones a dj!".
Do you own a Tshirt with a picture of a turntable on it? 
No. I don't plan to either.
How important is it to look good behind the decks? 
I don't think it matters any more than most scenarios, I'm more bothered about being comfortable. Having said that, at my last gig I did wear my favourite Ted Baker shirt, and I always freshly shave my head.
Best nightclub in the UK to DJ in? 
Not that I have done, but I'm gonna say Fabric or Ministry of Sound. As you'd expect they've done things properly and the sound system / dj equipment is the best money can buy.
Do you take requests? If so ever get asked to play 'DJ Culture by the Pet SHop Boys? 
I might at a house party if I have the track (which means i'll like it anyway). Overall I've been lucky in that department tho and I've been left alone. I had to google that Pet Shop Boys track... I wouldn't play it.
Why do most DJ's look like they could do with a decent meal in them? 
We can be an obsessive bunch and priorities shift.
A brand you would endorse for free? 
It'd have to be one I already use/wear alot or something useful. I'm open to offers...
Ever had a girlfriend threaten to smash up your record collection? If so did you chin her? 
Luckily not. I think they've always known how much it means to me. Worst comes to worst i'd apply a bear hug until she calmed down.
Has anyone ever come up to you and said, 'I heard you're the best' ? 
No, and if they did I'd assume they'd be taking the piss.
What is Super Scratch Sunday? 
Its a session for djs to meet up, talk, share ideas, and most importantly scratch together. The scratch scene can be quite internet based sometimes so it's a good excuse to get away from a computer. It's been going about 2.5 years now, and we've been lucky enough to have djs from all over the world pass through. Check out www.superscratchsunday.com for all links concerning though.
