Cat Deeley



Cat Deeley reminisces about Ant and Dec and tells Jonathan Ross about
conquering American TV when she visits the Friday Night With Jonathan
Ross sofa on BBC One tonight.



"It was a great time," Cat says of her days as a children's television presenter.



"At the time we had no idea how much fun it was going to be... three
hours of live TV a week, 52-weeks a year for six years... it was pretty
much sink or swim.



"There's no better grounding. Now whatever they throw at me, I can cope with."



Cat's top reality US TV show So You Think You Can Dance premieres in
the UK this weekend and she is now a regular on the Jay Leno Show.



But she denies she will leave the UK permanently: "Hopefully I can
still keep coming backwards and forwards, I wouldn't want to leave the
UK completely."



Jonathan also welcomes to the show Don Johnson, best known for Miami Vice, and in the UK to star in Guys And Dolls.



Don says: "I started out in musical comedy but I'm in the terror stage right now."



He also talks about his family - his daughter with Melanie Griffith,
Dakota, is 17: "Now there's a challenge, she's going through the lying
stage."



And on his younger children: "It's like being a father and grandfather
all at the same time. You get more relaxed, you appreciate more."



Jonathan also talks to Jimmy Carr. And there's a double music treat in
the form of Tenacious D (Jack Black) as well as Boy George with Amanda
Ghost performing live in the studio.



Friday Night With Jonathan Ross, 10.35pm, 15 December 2006, BBC One.
