She added: “It was horrific and I remember I interviewed Liam Neeson wearing that jacket and the poor man, his retinas were sore looking at me.”
Lorraine continued: “But yeah, no, I’ve got many, many a mistake. You know, I would say up until I was about 55, I was getting it wrong more than I was getting it right.
