He carried the essentials in a black bag as well as a pack of cigarettes and a lighter in his hands.

Tim addressed the no-show, explaining that the former EastEnders star was busy filming the second series of hit show Rivals.
He told the audience: ‘Now Danny Dyer is joining us today, but he’s busy right in the middle of filming Rivals.’
Tim then joked: ‘He is on his way though and he’s offered to stop in at the services to get pick up some bits and bobs. Anyone want anything?’
Comedian Alex requested: ‘A sausage role?’ as Tim continued: ‘Sausage roll alright, we’ll text him later.’
He added: ‘He’s a very successful man at the moment. He did just get a BAFTA and he’ll be celebrating on the show. We’d like to make him feel special’.
Co-host Simon then pulled out of the fridge a comically small bottle of champagne, quipping: ‘We’ve pushed the boat out’.
