Vernon, his 16-year-old daughter and his brother Stephen will be at Cardiff's Principality Stadium for the start of their reunion tour. Ahead of the highly anticipated gig, the radio star recalled a moment he was called a 'lanky streak of p***' by Liam while at a Prodigy concert in 2009.

Speaking of the incident, he said: "I bumped into Liam and his then-wife Nicole Appleton. They’d been on holiday and I’d had a couple of lagers and cheekily yelled at him: 'Is that fake tan you’re wearing?'
