Rylan Clark-Neal

I am a bit of a lad but don't tell: it will ruin my image!

Because I've got veneers, I am always checking to make sure I haven't got food in my teeth.

I am constantly nice to people. Sometimes they don't deserve it.

I mean, I'm an 'X Factor' reject presenting on Radio 2, what's going on?

My job is one of the things that keeps me sane. I love what I do and I'm lucky to do it.

I love Sertab Erener with 'Everyway That I Can' - that was an absolute tune.

I was actually in a Take That tribute band.

I'm not under any illusion that I'm an A-lister; I don't think I'm even on the alphabet scale. But I'm in people's houses every day - I'm there when they wake up and there when they go to bed. So people think they know who I am. And, to a certain extent, they do.

In 2013, I had to do 'The Wright Stuff' on about an hour's sleep. I was asked, 'What do you make of the situation in Mali?' and I said, 'Well, I've not seen the film but I know the dog dies in the end.' They were talking about the civil war, and the whole audience took an inward breath. I thought, 'Should I not have revealed the end of the film?'
