Although the pair get on like a house on fire – they are not a couple!

Indeed they are both married to other people.

While speaking to Good Housekeeping last year, Kirstie said she sometimes gets frustrated at Phil’s popularity when it comes to work off the show.

But she put it down to sexism.

She said: “I once said to my agent, ‘Phil gets all this voiceover work and I don’t get any; where am I going wrong?’ And she said, ‘According to advertisers, women make 95% of purchasing decisions and they don’t want to be told what to do by other women.’

“Things like that make it very difficult and there’s a huge amount of it still going on.”

How long has the Channel 4 series be on for now?

The show has been on Channel 4 since it launched back in 2000.

Its 35th series is about to launch.
