Both guests are big fans of cooking and eating outdoors. “I absolutely love it,” says Katy. “I think cooking outside, eating outside is what it’s all about.

It’s sociable, it’s relaxed, it’s just got those summery vibes. But also, crack out the barbecue in the winter too, why not?” Richard agrees: “I think, if you’ve got a cover, it should be an all year round thing. Put an extra jumper on! I’ve always used my BBQ as an oven, if you’ve got a lid, then you have an outdoor oven. We did Christmas dinner on it a couple of years ago – there’s nothing you can’t do on it!”
