Not the interview itself (although that was certainly memorable), but the story behind it.

Given that Katie turns 50 this year, you may have guessed, we grew up in the 90's. Give us a bit of Britpop, some dance classics and a questionable fashion choice, and we're instantly transported back to the days where the Now That's What I Call Music series was still in double figures.
