Eamonn Holmes has told of the "longest six minutes" of his life. The Northern Irish TV presenter was asked about awkward career moments while appearing on Vick Hope's Breakfast Show.
Speaking about an encounter he had with magician David Blaine, the Belfast man said: "Once I interviewed a guy, a magician called David Blaine and he decided not to speak. And basically it was the longest six minutes of my life.
"I sat there and it was only afterwards I thought, 'Why didn't I say this?' Or 'I should have said that to him' or whatever. I mean, I did fill the empty time, but you think of the best lines after, that's the thing.
