Eugene revealed he frequently shared a train with celebs returning to Brighton from a night out in London.

Referring to a show he got in free to once a week, which finished at midnight, he explained that he had to take "the only practical train to take back from London at that time that went to Crawley," which was "the 12:05 service."

"I called it the 'Celebrity Express'," he added, "because you'd find the odd celebrity... anybody who's been out for a night in London who lives in Brighton goes on this train. So you tended to find a lot of celebrities who lived in Brighton on this train."

"So are there a lot of celebrities who live in Brighton then?" asked a nonplussed Anthony.

"A few. Chris Eubank lives there. What's-his-name from Neighbours... Joe Mangel... he was on the Big Breakfast for a while..." he explained before the conversation derailed into a discussion of Mark Little's Sky One voiceovers and a taxi being tardy for Eugene's travels to Victoria Station in London.
