In September 2010 Matt and Cat were interviewed by John Hannam, the host of Britain’s longest running non-stop radio chat show.

John Hannam

Matt and Cat were privileged to join an unbroken procession of illustrious interviewees including Prince Edward, Sir Cliff Richard, Bob Monkhouse, Charlton Heston, Tommy Cooper and many more.

John said “The Island’s most famous dining out reviewers, Matt and Cat, have agreed to make a very rare public appearance. Their real identity is still very much a secret. Will they wear masks, so that John doesn’t recognise them, or even disguise their voices? It’s quite a revealing conversation.

The programme was broadcast on IW Radio on 12 September 2010. IW Radio doesn’t offer a digital ‘listen again’ service, and so for those who missed it, or were on the mainland, Isle of Wight Radio and John Hannam have kindly given permission for Matt and Cat to publish the interview here.

    I have just listened to the John Hannam interview. Good one! However I’m very suprised that you both refer to the proprietor of a restaurant as a restauranter(sic).

    A mainland restaurateur!

    Finally got a free half hour to listen (having been out at Bestival when it originally aired). Well done – great to hear, and glad you were able to share it via the site.

  • Nick Churchill says:

    So glad you were able to get a copy of the interview so those of us who missed it could enjoy it too…Have to say it was the best piece of radio I have heard for a long time and your enthusiasm comes across in spades!!!
