Sunday with Rev Kate Bottley: ‘I make food when people are sad’

Sunday lie in? The only thing I don’t like about my job is the tug of war with my alarm. I’m up at 4.30am in the Holiday Inn in Salford before my Radio 2 show. It gives me that airport tummy feeling.

First thing you do? The great thing about radio is nobody can see you, so I just walk into the studio, the coffee goes on, the papers come out and my co-host Jason Mohammad and I open our takeaway bags from the hotel and stare into them in the hope it’s some beautiful Heston Blumenthal creation instead of yesterday’s croissants.
