Manu: What did you think of me when we first met?

Colin: We hated each other. We didn’t get on. We used to have a little feud. We met in a bar.

Manu: It started there?

Colin: You were a d—!

Manu: Yeah, you were such a nice guy and I was such a d—.

Colin: No, we had a feud for a very long time and then we got stuck working together, but we actually found out that we do get on.

Manu: We found out we’ve got more in common than we thought we did.

The judges admit their friendship didn’t get off to a great start!

Colin: OK, my first question! Out of the three MKR judges [Manu, Colin and Pete Evans], who has the smelliest farts?

Both: Pete Evans! [Laughs]

Colin: See? We both said it at the same time. Mr Cabbage!

Manu: How do you cope with the attention from female contestants?

Colin: Very well.

Manu: Does it ever get awkward?

Colin: A lot.

Manu: It is actually very awkward. I mean it’s nice, but it’s awkward… you don’t know how to deal with it.

The pair play a hilarious game of ‘Never Have I Ever’ in this week’s OK! Magazine!

Colin: OK, here’s a tough one… Would you rather eat an overly spicy meal or a meal with no sauce?

Manu: Can I get both? I don’t mind spice, but I need sauce. It can’t just be spicy and not saucy.

Manu: Alright, what’s the worst dish you’ve ever tasted on MKR? And don’t say my food!

Colin: It was a squid dish, but it was quite thick. It was cooked on the outside, but it was raw in the middle and it started to sort of ferment a bit.

Manu:Ugh [retches]. I don’t remember this one; it must have been someone in your group. Mine was season two or three, so it was a long time ago, but we had these people doing a frozen lavender cheesecake and it tasted like a bar of soap.

The larrikin judges now get along famously.

Colin: Have you figured out the trick to not putting on extra kilos while filming?

Manu: Nope. I mean the answer should be easy – stop eating shit food…

Colin: But we can’t!

Colin: Do you think there should be a celebrity version of MKR?

Both: No!

Manu: No bloody way. You know why? Because none of them can cook!
