      I love the “older people vs younger people” tasks. The older ones are always just there to have a good time, meanwhile the younger ones run around trying their best to do well. Reminds me of life in general. The older folks have proven themselves already, so they’re taking it slower. The younger ones still have a lot to prove so they’re doing their best.

      It's not that well-known, but Katy is autistic, so that might explain why she sometimes looked awkward in the studio. A lot of people noticed this about Fern Brady in the most recent series, who also has autism.
      Then again Joe Thomas spent 90% of the studio portion in series 8 looking like he had no idea where he was (until Erasergate happened, then he really started to relax) and he's neurotypical.
