Reporting to us live from his bed in Bristol and armed with a bacon sandwich, it’s DJ, reality star, and bisexual icon Woody Cook. You may know him from starring alongside his mum Zoe Ball on Celebrity Gogglebox, or for his incredible ballgown which stole the show at the Attitude Awards. We speak about how bisexual representation has transformed, how boys' fashion needs to evolve, and how his dad Norman Cook aka Fat Boy Slim introduced him to the Labour Party.
