When asked whether Vicky would be watching his new show, Our House, Martin responded: "I’m sure she will, she will definitely get a few digs privately on Whatsapp but in public I’m sure she’ll be my biggest fan, and I wouldn’t expect anything less from Vick, she’s a superstar."

On the topic of Line Of Duty, Martin also revealed the name of the team's Whatsapp group.

"Because Vicky’s got these daft words, I think it’s called ‘Shalamandro."

"Vicky just makes up words... the thing is Vicky is hilarious because she’s almost funny, and she comes up with these stupid things, she’s the kind of person to be telling you a joke and then start laughing before she tells you the punchline."
