Derek has expressed concern that Anthony may believe he is being ignored.
The speechwriter, who has previously criticised Anthony's "extreme vanity," told Craig that it was not his intention to blank the dancer.
"You must ask Anthony whether he's noticed if I've been nicer to him," he instructed.
"I thought 'poor Anthony' ... if he thought ever since he arrived here that I've been sort of off-hand with him. It's hardly intentional - it was kind of my manner [and] some people think it's quite off-hand. It wasn't any more than I am with anybody else. Actually I like him!"
"You can like somebody but still crash with them," Craig pointed out.
"I think there's something kind of sweet about him," Derek continued. "I just find it difficult talking to him. I can't find anything to talk about."
Craig went one better, adding: "I'm finding it difficult to talk to everyone. I'm kind of in a bad mood all the time now."
